Fascinating Facts About Orchard Wildlife

Little owls often choose farmland and fruit orchards for nesting because these places offer plenty of low perches for hunting. Instead of building their own nests, they frequently use natural tree hollows or crevices in old wooden structures. They are active during both day and night, making them easier to spot than many other owl species.
