  1. Owl houses! How wonderful! We hear hoot owls here frequently, and often see tiny Elf Owls during the day, and sometimes Burrowing Owls, too, who share the prairie dog tunnels with "dogs" and stand sentinel on the mounds of dirt around the tunnel entrances.

  2. I love owls. We used to have two in our valley. It was so fun to hear them. I don't know where they went. Can't wait to see if you get any.

  5. We have them around this time of year and we hear them hooting early in the morning before the sun comes up! Ours are the large great horned owls. We have a famous pair that nest in a families balcony and window box. They usually lay eggs in the winter and hatch when it's so cold. They have a web cam most years so viewers can watch. https://www.facebook.com/OKCOwlCam/ It's fascinating to watch them from their hatch to fledge! We always hope they return each year!

    1. I love these owl stories! I have been hearing two great horned owls for a week, I read they like open nests, plus be certain you want them, since they are vicious with their talons and can kill 15 pound pets 😱

      I am trying to coax the western screech owl, time will tell, I read to have boxes in place by January.
