I am laughing even as I type this -- partly because it's just like me to come up with another mildly nutty idea, and partly because I truly have no time to take on a new project, however small.
That being said, my lastest plan is to build one or two owl houses. Uh huh. Owls. Specifically, Eastern Screech Owl houses, because I think that is the type of owls we have in our neighborhood.
I mean, how cute is this guy? I'd love to count him as a resident in my yard!
When I had my lake property, one of the first things I did was put up a bat house. Do you know how many flying bugs they eat an hour? It's insane. But I've moved on from bats -- I'm on to owls. Rodent catching owls. Ohhh yes, my pretty!
I've looked up owl house construction plans online (you've gotta love the internet) and they look unbelievably simple. I mean, it will probably just take about 5 minutes. Looking at the plans, it appears that all I need is an 8 foot 1"x 10", a hinge, some wire, and some cedar shavings. I have all of that...well wait, I guess cedar mulch probably doesn't count...
