David Siems mentioned the program about John Young and the great  job he is
doing encouraging cane farmers in the Ingham area to use owls for pest
control. Thanks to his efforts the second generation rodenticide 'klerat',
that caused the decline in the raptor population  is being taken off the
market.

Some of the footage in that film on TV came from a video on Owls, 'Wings of
Silence' that will be released for sale next month.  From what I've seen of
bits of it, it should be a best seller.
Cheers
Jo Wieneke.
