What We Do
Carmel Owls is dedicated to the installation of Great Horned Owl platforms in Carmel-by-the-Sea and neighboring Monterey Peninsula cities. Through the identification of suitable tall trees, meeting with the homeowners, building the owl platforms and finally installing the platform with our crew of volunteers, we'll hopefully encourage a nesting pair of Great Horned Owls to take up residence.
Our Goals
Carmel Owls' goals over the next year are to build and install another 5 to 10 owl platforms to encourage Great Horned Owls to nest and subsequently reduce the growing rat and vermin population in Carmel-by-the-Sea and the surrounding Monterey Peninsula.
Adopt an Owl Platform
If you live in Carmel Knolls, Rancho Rio Vista, Carmel Views, Carmel Highlands, Pebble Beach, Pacific Grove, Monterey or Carmel Valley and have a suitable tall tree with safe and easy access for a cherry picker, we'll build and install your platform for free. Let us know! Please note that Carmel-by-the-Sea is now completely full of owl platforms.
