A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

A comprehensive handbook covering all aspects of the conservation of Barn Owls. Written by the Barn Owl Trust, this book includes in-depth information on Barn Owl survey techniques, relevant ecology, Barn Owls and the law, mortality, habitat management, use of nest boxes and barn Owl rehabilitation. Essential reading for ecologists, planners, land managers and ornithologists.

Revue de presse

Packed with well-researched information and drawing on two decades of first-hand experience, the Barn Owl Trust's book looks set to become the definitive reference for those with an interest in Barn Owls, their ecology and conservation. Like the Trust, this book is upbeat and practical, delivering an optimistic approach to Barn Owl conservation that is accessible to readers from a wealth of backgrounds. --Mike Toms (BTO), coordinator of the national Barn Owl survey; Project Barn Owl.

The Barn Owl Conservation Handbook brings together intellectual and practical expertise in a way that is rarely achieved. The time for such a book to focus on this subject has now come, not because we did not need one earlier, but because there is now sufficient knowledge and expertise which can be put into practice, and thereby make a real diff erence to the fortunes of these charismatic birds. Here you will fi nd guidance on all aspects of Barn Owl conservation, from the care of injured birds, the creation and conservation of suitable habitat for their maintenance and successful breeding, to thorny questions about the impact of major roads and secondary poisoning by rodenticides. It would be easy to write a book about Barn Owls that would be a classic in the genre of conservation gloom and doom. Barn Owls are under pressure from multiple sources which are well analysed and described here. But rather than throwing up our hands, we are invited by this guide to take a very positive approach. --Graham Martin, Emeritus Professor, Ornithology
