I have watched this cam for three years now.
I found you here and want to ask if anyone had seen the male bird ? I have not seen him for days but then I do not watch all day.
There is even a spiders web up there where the male perches ?
if anybody sees the male please post here.
I know that there is/was a forum in Switzer-dutch but I don't understand that.

I haven't been watching enough to say I have not seen the male....female feeding the 6 pak and seems like a decent size rodent in the corner....interesting to point out Kestrels do not appear to keep a stash of food around....I guess they like fresh kills....

ma and pa kestral food delivery - ma rips prey in corner - brings it over and begins to feed chicks


sweeties - before ma left and both parents returned

Thank you Junie for the news,its reassuring to know that both parents are still around.!!

I see a parent Kestrel feeding just now. There are indeed SIX but last season I think they raised five.. They are very prolific and very diligent parent birds.
