They are still around, and I imagine will nest there again. I have some good pictures of the offspring nesting. Might be a good site for your students to visit. Actually, the location they nest in currently in the silo is not ideal, so maybe a nesting location in there would be better for you to install. Let me know your interest level. I'm in Waterford, VA near the intersection of Rt 9 and Old Wheatland Rd. I had barn owls nesting in my silo (attached to my barn… which I turned into a house) last Spring.

Being so close to LVHS, I'm sure the kids and teacher are aware of the silos on Bell Road near John Deere Nurseries. Maybe a possibility? One site I love to visit throughout the nesting year is http://watch.birds.cornell.edu/nestcams/home/index. The barn owls are always a favorite of mine. Good luck to the kids. What a great idea!!!
