Abstract:
In this article the author is discussing the building of better nest boxes for the Barn Owl which simulate the natural nesting areas the Barn Owl use. The author talks about that the containers being used as nesting boxes are made from 250-275 gallon intermediate bulk containers. The author says that other barn owls around the country use smaller nesting boxes but the barn owl in North Carolina have been shown to no like using the smaller nesting boxes. The hope for the use of these larger nesting boxes is so that when barn owls are moved from where they are interfering with human activity they still have a safe nesting choice. The author is discussing that they are working to install these new nesting boxes in areas with active barn owl populations and are looking to install more nesting boxes.

Abstract:
In this article the author is discussing the detail about the Barn Owl Project. The author is discussing the historical changes of where barn owls nest which was silos and barns which are becoming fewer. The author states that hunters have been helping out with creating new nesting areas for barn owls without even knowing through the installation of permanent deer hunting boxes. This is what started the Barn Owl Project in which started the creation of original nesting boxes. These nesting boxes would be installed on private properties but this lead to another question which was how could they tell if a barn owl population was present. The Barn Owl Project think had the idea that the nest boxes were too small for North Carolina barn owls which preferred larger nesting boxes. The Barn Owl Project also learned that just installing nesting box on a property does not mean that barn owls will use it unless there is already a barn owl population present.
