The story so far: Kestrels have been nesting on our balcony regularly since 2007. The male of the kestrel pair has been living with us since November 2019. With the previous female (she lived with us from July 2018 to January 2022), they brought out 6 young in 2020 and 4 young in 2021. With the current Mrs Kestrel, who appeared here on February 12, 2022, then 4 young ones in 2022, 6 ones in 2023 and 2024, in 2025 even 7 ones.
They both spend this winter 2025—26 with us.
Currently, courtship is beginning.
When the kestrels are not present, you can see also other birds: tits, nuthatches (regular winter visitors in small mixed troops), sparrows… and also pigeons, whose presence is a permanent source of conflicts with kestrels.
The swift nestboxes next to the kestrel’s balcony had been empty since the end of July 2026 as well as the swift box on the windowsill next to the kestrel’s balcony, that was occupied by tits last year.
We expect the swifts to return in the first days of May.
