Conservation Fund Report

In 2004, the Birds of Berkshire Conservation Fund helped the Moor Green Lakes Group, working with Wokingham District Council, to support the installation of Barn Owl boxes in the Wokingham area. In most years nearly half of the 19 boxes have been occupied and so far a grand total of 89 Barn Owl chicks have been reared. A report on the project can be found on the Wokingham District Council website.

A further grant was made in 2008 for Barn Owl boxes to be installed to the south and west of Reading.”
