Fastening instruction

Pygmy Owl likes spruce- and mixed forests, but the nest box should be fastened to a spruce (or pine). Height can be 1,5–2,5 metres and this bird collects winter storage, so it’s recommended to have another nest box for that. Starling nest box also works as a good winter storage.
