Great Tits
Ospreys in the UK were down to a single breeding site in Scotland when I was a kid - the RSPB bought the land specifically to protect them. Since then they have had success in increasing their range, with breeding pairs now present in Cumbria, Snowdonia and on Rutland Water, the latter being the site of a major conservation effort in recent years.
Edit: Here's a link to that project.
The Northern Harrier is known in the UK as the Hen Harrier - here they are critical status, mostly because of the propensity of gamekeepers on the grouse moors to blast them out of the sky to protect the grouse until posh people arrive to blast them out of the sky.
