INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF OWLS

Nest Box Building

2023 nest box building

During the Festival you'll get to build your own owl nest box if you'd like. You will be provided with materials, equipment, and supervised instruction to assemble the boxes, plus instructions for placement of the boxes.

Choose between a box that will work for Eastern Screech-Owls, Northern Saw-whet Owls (and American Kestrels and Wood Ducks) or a box for Barred Owls. Both are made of high quality materials for long life. 

This event is put on by the Houston Boy Scouts, and all proceeds benefits their scouting program.
Saturday, March 4 from  10:30 - 2:30
Sunday, March 5 from 11:00 - 1:00

Houston High School
​
Cost is $/box (fee yet to be determined) for either a Screech-Owl/Saw-whet Owl box or a Barred Owl box.
