Can the mods leave this in the bird section please, hopefully more owl experts will see it in here.............
Righto, managed to get the use of this with the sole intent of attracting barn owls...........
Now I know very little about barn owls and need some help please. Neil form stealth wildlife has given me a purpose built box, thanks, and the landowner has ok`ed it for the barn to be used. A lot of the ledges seen here are used by jackdaws to nest, should I block these off before they nest or will the jackdaws not bother the owls?
This is the front entrance to the barn.
Would the box be high enough up if I mounted it to the roof as shown here;
Or should I open the door showing in the first pic and mount it actually inside the barn itself, leaving the door fixed open for access?
The main door shown above cannot be opened.
Any help appreciated.
