Owls can nest in many different ways. Many species, like great horned and great gray the owl, reside in old nests of hawks and squirrels. Other species, like the short-eared owl and snowy owl, build nests upon the floor. The burrowing owl is found in the old burrows of mammal species. Many owls have nests in cavities in trees.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Owls are skilled hunters but nest builders aren’t. Many owls profit from the work of other animals, rather than creating their own nests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Certain owls, such as Great Horned Owls, build empty nests within trees, or on the cliffs constructed by crows, hawks magpies, or other birds. A lot of owls build nests in cavities, also known as holes or hollows in trees. The cavities in trees are natural but are typically caused by woodpeckers. Elf Owls have nests in saguaro Cacti, in which woodpeckers are able to make holes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Scientists believe male owls establish and announce territories, however female owls choose the nesting sites. Together, the pair of owls protect their nest. The nesting area will be the home of the family of owls for a few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
