Loving British Barn Owls
by director on Jul.12, 2009, under Ecology
To be honest, I’m not that fond of the Barn Owl Cam over at the Barn Owl Trust. I am, however, quite impressed with the important work of the Barn Owl Trust.
They work in the UK to protect barn owls there. Barn owls are decreasing in numbers as their hunting habitat is developed for human use, and the places they roost in, barns and old snags, aren’t as common as they used to be.
The Brits have also got the Barn Owl Conservation Network.
Here in the US, for more information about the barn owl, you can visit the All About Birds online guide.
