You may want to position this birdhouse away from the houses of other birds. The charming 7" owls can become quite tame.
Nests in deep woods, preferably near swamps. Likes coniferous woods and evergreen thickets in parks and gardens. Breeds from southeastern Alaska east across central Canada to Nova Scotia and south to southern California, Arizona, Illinois, North Carolina (in mountains) and Connecticut.
