They're barely back up to their pre-pesticide numbers. There only seems to be a lot because we have been bereft of them for 40+ years. It goes to show what healthy avian ecosystems we have.
Cheers,

Cheers,
Adam | There also seems to be a lot because they are quite obviously very adept in adapting to existence in and around humans and houses, unlike other BOPs.
Long may it continue!

Good news if they are on the increase, it would indeed be a wonderful sight if one ever visited my little garden in north west london, mind you if he did it would be for food of the little bird and mammal kind 
Oh well, such is nature!! |

This is the 2nd one ive seen but the last one didnt want to be photograph,as it was in pursuit of a very worried looking sparrow
It will be great if their numbers continue to rise
