The male Eastern Screech Owl's attention is focused on getting food for his mate now that there are eggs in the nest box. He catches a nice juicy invasive Cuban Tree Frog. Putting a 6 to 8 foot high perch 10 to 15 feet in front of the nest box and not using any pesticides on the Backyard is crucial to making a nest box attractive to these little owls.

It's a little pricey but I've had this one since November 2010 and its held up fine and had owls every season since I got it!
