The Camargue
Conservation project
La Crau is the French stronghold for the lesser kestrel. La Ligue pour la Protection des Oiseaux (LPO, the French Bird Protection League) has installed nestboxes on the roof of sheepfolds, so reducing the level of predation observed in ground nesting lesser kestrels. Once looking likely to disappear from France, lesser kestrels have recovered steadily, in La Crau growing from 32 pairs in 1994 to 150 pairs in 2009.
