More Raptor Boxes

Last Sunday was quite epic in the fact that 5 of us installed 7 Raptor boxes, 3 Tawny Owl boxes,3 Kestrel boxes and a Barn Owl box.

It took most of the day as you can imagine, immensely satisfying installing them for us all on a project that began at least a month or 2 ago.

Massive credit has to go to the people organizing this, and also for a number of volunteers and those in charge for making the boxes.

All the boxes were made out of 9mm plastic sheeting, the big thing is that they will last come what may in terms of weather exposure.
Plastic is the way to go with them in terms of durability and longer lasting, so I could well head down that road myself for my boxes, if it becomes readily available.

All went very well on the day, all eyes now will be on uptake, they will be checked again in May.

A big thanks to those in charge also for allowing me to use the photos below.
