We have had Little Owls nesting in the bedroom roof-space for several years. In 2019 we decided to install a nest box to try and encourage them to move out. They make so much noise feeding in the middle of the night!
Very soon we had a pair investigating the box. They seemed to like it, but unfortunatley preferred their old roof-space nest! We thought we had blocked all the routes in to the roof, but apparnetly not. They ended up laying 3 eggs in the roof-space next, all of which hatched. But sadly the chicks died from dehydration after an extended period of rain that prevented the adults from hunting.
