Great horned owl egg size

Owls are a beautiful species of birds, one of my favourites. Granted, their necks are a bit odd, but that can be forgiven. Each type of owl has its own charm and mysticism.

We’re hoping to peek behind the curtain of owls below by finding out all about how they nest. Welcome to MTV Cribs, Owl Edition.



Many species of owls enjoy nesting in buildings, the most well known being the barn owl, of course.

Owls do also happily nest in trees and will adopt the nest of another species.



I bet finding a family of owls in your nest is a bitter pill to swallow.

Owl eggs facts

Owls are an extremely interesting bird species, and the more you find out about their nesting habits, the more interesting they become.

A lot of owl species like to find a cavity in a tree for their nest. They also use dead snags in trees and will happily nest in human-made boxes and even on platforms and cliffs.

Owls like to protect their nests, so they use the environment to their advantage. High up, away from prying eyes, in a cavity of a tree or the corner of a building, keeps their eggs and young safe.
