Owl House, The Moonrise Roost

Let twilight bring more than starlight; welcome nature’s quiet guardians with the Moonrise Roost, a beautifully simple owl house for screech owls and kestrels, perfect for both new and seasoned birders.

Built from solid 0.875" thick cypress, this durable, weather-smart roost offers the features owls love and the ease birders appreciate. The 3" entrance hole is shaded by a deep overhang, while ventilation holes and base-level drainage maintain a dry, comfortable interior. Inside, a netted ladder helps young owlets climb when it’s time to fledge.

The front panel inverts for winter, keeping warmer air near the top, and dual twist latches make nest checks easy while protecting from predators. With a natural, no-fuss look, the Moonrise Roost blends right into forest edges, fences, or quiet garden posts.

Why It’s a Wise Choice:

• The slanted roof has a significant overhang to protect the 3" diameter entrance hole from moisture.
• Ventilation holes at the top of the frame help regulate the interior temperature, and gaps at the base of the piece act as drainage holes.
• Two sturdy twist latches keep the home closed and safe from larger predators, while allowing regular nest checks.
• The front panel is easily inverted for winter use, keeping warmer air at the top of the home.
• Netting on the interior of the door acts as a ladder, aiding fledglings in exiting the nest.
• The 0.875" thick, solid cypress construction creates a well-insulated home, while the natural color helps the item blend with its surroundings.
• Mount this home to a post or wall for stability and height.

Add the Moonrise Roost to your cart and make room for the wild at twilight. It's not just a home; it’s a quiet invitation to witness something extraordinary.
