Things You'll Need:
- Untreated wood
- Saw
- Drill
- Screws
- Paddle bit
-
Step 1
Build a rectangular box that is 23-by-32-by-20 inches. The box should be shallow. Falcons won't nest in anything that resembles a cave.
-
Step 2
Position the falcon nest box on its side. Use scraps of wood to create a ledge 3 to 4 inches from the edge of the box.
-
Step 3
Drill holes in the bottom for drainage purposes. Use a drill with a paddle bit attachment. The holes should be small to prevent harm to the falcon.
-
Step 4
Utilize small, smooth gravel for a nest substrate and make it 3 to 4 inches deep. If the gravel is rough the eggs will crack.
-
Step 5
Observe the falcon in your area to determine where you should place the falcon nest box. It should be placed in a high location near water.
