'Nineteen species of owls can be found in the United States and while some have very specific habitat requirements, many are found across much of the continent
Varieties include the great horned owl, which lives across North America. Its deep 'who who' call can be heard after dark in all kinds of woodlands and even deserts
'In the eastern half of the country, barred owls can be heard asking "who cooks for you" across swamps and wetlands
Screech owls and barn owls are some of the other species found in the US, and can be attracted by large nesting boxes, Maren adds
The screech owl or saw-whet owl cedar nesting box from JCs Wildlife Store at Amazon is well-rated
Attacks from owls are rare. However, it's important not to get within close proximity to them in the wild, as they may become aggressive if they feel under threat.
Owls aren't the only natural visitors you can encourage into your yard. Why not fill your garden with plants for pollinators
add a water feature to attract dragonflies, or put up a hummingbird feeder, too?
