Farmers and landowners are being urged to support a wildlife project encouraging barn owls to breed on their land.

The Cam Valley Wildlife Group carries out monitoring of the birds and is keen to see the barn owl population increase in the area.

The group covers an area centred on Midsomer Norton and Radstock and has been running the barn owl conservation project for 18 years.

Group members are keen to continue the work in encouraging breeding pairs to take up a home in the area.
