If the mice in my house are a good indication, then the late owls will at
least have prey availability on their side. I don't recall if Deer Mice are
found in the open country, too...but if so, the same argument would apply to
the Kestrels.

My latest records for nest start dates for Saw-whets are 11 and 13 June, so
I check all of my nest boxes at least once after the 13th. This year, there
were no nests found by me or anyone else that I know of that monitors small
owl nest boxes. However, it is possible that next year I may find the
remains of a nest that was started even later than my last check date.
