Mama Breezy spent the night perched at home.
I love seeing her

3 am she bagged HUGE prey - pigeon?
I had no idea a falcon hunted at night!

:omg

Mama Breezy was here all night.
She appeared to be awake all night - why?
The 2 of them went inside and renewed their bond.

KESTREL!
August 15, 2021 I saw a KESTREL! I think male - pics

I am very surprised falcons are awake at night.
I even saw Breezy fly off and return later.
I have wondered if another bird is challenging them for this box

The cam will be less available and turned off at some point soon.

During the next week I will be patching the server and at that point I will not be bringing it back online until next season.

Here's the temporary link:

Breezy perched on box perch all night.
6.30 am she took off upward like a rocket

I am reasonably sure Breezy is contending with an intruder.
Several of her behaviors could indicate this.
Yesterday her breast appeared bloody - yes, could be prey ...
She's been hyper watchful

With no sound, its hard to tell.
The only further clue was the male kestrel I saw here last week.
But a little kestrel is no match for a falcon

Yes, we were told that they migrate.

The temporary cam link is now on the first page.

Speaking of Breezy...

Thank for the info cat - and for Breezy behind! :biggrin:

Yes, she perchs up there, over there, over here - all over
She's on the back perch left, the front perch left, the front perch right
She's on the roof way in back and in the front and the side

Love this cam
Hope for sound next year

I didnt see any birdy here yesterday.
Today I caught both of them - BRIEFLY.

Hi all :)

The cameras will be down possibly this week and next, I'm not sure I'll have time to get them back up right away.

Couple things:
1) If you include the date/time of cool pics, I can grab hi-def photos for our collection
2) Hoping to start working on getting the mic working for next year's season

Thanks queen
I'll miss your cam
I put pics on RRP and date them -
but only say - dawn - not a time

The pics I got of the male Kestrel on top of your nestbox was so awesome!
They are so quick - he was there - FLASH! - and gone

I will be SO HAPPY to have sound!
