The Bisham Barn Owl Group 2025 Report has been published 🦉
Last year was a record nesting year for their Retrapping Adults for Survival project, but sadly this year was very poor for nesting, with just 2 nest attempts and 4 chicks ringed, compared with 108 last year.
There could be many different reasons for this decline in numbers, and many wildlife species have cyclical population fluctuations, so let’s keep our talons crossed this iconic bird of our countryside, bounces back for 2026 💚
