The diameter and shape of the first two nesting baskets for raptors and owls match those of the natural nests of Crows, Magpies and certain raptors. The baskets are attached (by wire) to the forks of trees and have proved highly successful. Birds of prey and owls tend to use the same nests and eyries for many years.
