 Christopher Robin and his friends (particularly WOL) would prefer that this special birdhouse on the edge of a Half-Acre Wood be called the "Orenco Wolery." Suitable for cavity nesters like Screech owls or Pygmy owls, a pair of kestrels (small hawks) has reportedly been checking out the accommodations. |
The Owlery with the first touch of fall frost, 2003:
The Orenco Owlery is designed and crafted largely from deconstructed and recycled materials -- the nesting chamber is the bottom portion of a Doric porch column; the roof is a found-object hubcap topped with a light fixture globe; and the paint scheme was inspired by leftover cans in the Architect's basement. |
