Kestrel box
We've installed a donated kestrel nest box at Sweet Briar Marshes, complete with a camera inside! Stay tuned for potential nesters - hopefully, we'll see some fluffy chicks come springtime! The box could also attract other species such as stock doves or jackdaws.
Visitors to Sweet Briar often spot kestrels hovering over the short-grazed grass, hunting for voles and mice. With a bit of luck, this could be an exciting opportunity to witness them creating future generations that can continue to hunt at Sweet Briar for years to come. Fingers crossed 🤞
