Eurasian Kestrel - Netherlands / Beleef de Lente
birdcamfan:
I have seen the female sit on the doorway of the nest box at times in their night. I have been worried that she did not start incubating yet but it seems that she was still laying eggs. Maybe the dove felt knew something we don't when she tried to sit on the eggs herself.
irenekl:
Boy I feel bad. I've got my daughter hooked on falcon watching and then drew her in to this nest and she's anguishing over this now too. Makes you almost wish the dove would come back and help out! I saw the female approx 24 hours ago but absolutely nothing since.
allikat:
I hope he is still around...especially after everything that has happened at this site. There are 5 unguarded eggs at this nestbox. Let's all keep our fingers crossed!
carly:
That's so sad, I hope he is still around.
maggieblue:
Irenekl, I agree. I have been translating the observations for several weeks and it appears that they are monitoring both cams 24/7 to record observations. I don't know if they have any observers "on the ground". The male has not been seen here for 3 days. I checked in many times today and only saw the 5 eggs, no adults. It is possible that both adults are just outside of cam range and may reappear. But I have to say that, especially in light of all that has gone on here it is worrying. I hope that we will hear some positive information here soon.
