Kestrels





On a recent visit I caught up with this pair, its a pair I have been watching for a couple of years now and they nest naturally in a hole.

As you can see the bond to the nest site is retained throughout, both male and female were being mobbed by Jackdaws and Magpies when I caught up with them.















They have fledged 4 juveniles in each year in 20 and 21 and are constantly at odds with the Jackdaws in the cliff face, I would presume that the Jackdaws are after the nest hole.
