This Tawny Owl box should be placed high up in a mature tree the suggested height is between 3 and 5 metres. Try to Tawny Owls breed about a month earlier than Barn Owls, which means the rst eggs are typically laid around mid-March. However, eggs have been reported as early as December. Early autumn is therefore usually the best time for any cleaning and box works.
