Yearly Screech Owl Habits in the Owl Box House

Here is a pattern of what might occur with a screech owl family that chooses to nest in your Vundahboah Amish Goods cedar owl box.

The female screech owl may live in the box for most of the year, while the male may choose to go off for much of the year.  If they have babies in the spring, the screech owl male may hang out through the summer, and leave in the fall. 

During the summer, the owl mother and owl father will teach the baby owls to fly and hunt.  By summer end, the owlets will move on to find their own territories.  The mother will remain in the box and the father will return in the spring and often, the cycle is then repeated by these original parents. 

Many people see owl houses as a springtime purchase, but the truth is, mounting an owl house during any time of the year can prove fruitful in the long run for attracting owls to your area.  

Other than the pure enjoyment of watching the family pass through and use your yard as a habitat, another benefit of having an owl house/home is that when owls move in, they help cut down on the number of rodents and snakes nearby as well.
