Barn Owl
Until recently barn owls seemed to be in an inexorable decline. During the ‘30s there were around 12,000 pairs, but the loss of rough pasture and nest sites, coupled with pesticides and increased motor traffic had reduced numbers to 3,800 by the early ’90s.

Now the slide appears to have been halted, with a small increase recorded for the first time.
