Just hope he doesn't get into a fight with the male peregrine because he'd come off worst and he's too lovely for that!

I remember some pics I saw at the site from a few yrs back I think it said it started out a kestrel nest and falcons took over I'll have to got see what I can find.

It has some pics from 2004 of kestrels and falcons this is what it said

Kestrels nest in the city of Zurich. They nest usually on larger buildings, industrial plants, on church towers or on the indoor stadium. Since 2003, kestrel broods of the fireplace can heat and power plant waste Josefstrasse be recorded with a webcam.
Peregrines also nest in the city of Zurich. For example, in the nesting box on the chimney of the power plant Josefstrasse rubbish. On the landing board, they pluck their prey, such as sailing, sea gulls and other birds. Peregrines take in the city perceive a sanitary function, because the dove is one of their prey spectrum.

Here is a write up for it and it shows a few pictures of kestrels & falcons on the same day at the nest only hours apart


And if you have the patients to translate there are some great little stories here but thew pictures just about say it all :loveshow:

Thanks, Ferenz and KF, for the link to the historical information. How interesting to find out that kestrels have nested there in the past!

Kittenface, the same happened to me yesterday late afternoon and this early morning I couldn't load the web cam.
I browse with IE 7 and changed to IE 8. The cam is loading very very slowly but it works. The ladies at falken-förmchen
got some nice kestrel pics with mouse. We should think about a name for the male - what's your proposal?
