Mauritius kestrel (Falco punctatus), Ebony Forest Reserve Chamarel, Mauritius. In 1974, this Mauritius endemic was the rarest bird in the World. Due to ground-breaking conservation work the population rose to 800, but has now slumped to possibly 400 birds. In 2023, the Government of Mauritius declared the Mauritius Kestrel as its national bird. +/− [en]
