Little Owl appears to have undergone a range contraction in Wales and northern / western England since the 1988-91 Bird Atlas, the reasons for which are unknown. The 'gaps' show up clearly in the map of BirdTrack Little Owl records in 2010*. Your records will be very valuable (particularly where breeding can be proved, like in this week's excellent image) in ensuring that the Bird Atlas 2007-11 shows the complete picture.
