Barn Owl Nestbox Instructions

As many of you will know, Waitrose has generously sponsored the supply of a Barn Owl nestbox to every Waitrose Select Farm dairy farm. At the Waitrose Spring Food Festival this year we had an example of the nestbox on display and many of the visiting public who called in at the WildCare stand asked for instructions on how to build and locate one. With the kind permission of The Barn Owl Trust we attach here their instructions for building nestboxes that ideally suit the needs of Barn Owls.

You can read more about how to encourage Barn Owls, and find a great deal of interesting information on this lovely bird, by visiting the Barn Owl Trust website, via this link:
