Our Kestrel Box is expertly designed to cater to the nesting habits of these beautiful birds of prey. Crafted from durable 18mm sustainably sourced ply, our Kestrel Nesting Box ensures longevity and protection from the elements. The spacious chamber creates an inviting environment for nesting.

The box comes with all the necessary fixings and clear instructions, making setup quick and hassle-free. The mounting plate (included) slots into a hole on the backside of the box. This allows you to mount the plate, then offer up and attach the box. A much easier process than trying to mount the box directly. Installation services are also available, please get in touch.

By providing a Kestrel Box, you actively contribute to the conservation of these remarkable birds and support the preservation of their populations. Witness the hunting prowess of kestrels as they play a vital role in maintaining the balance of nature.

Overview

Additional Info

Placing Your Box:

1. Height: Hang the Kestrel Nesting Box at a medium height of 4 to 8 meters (13 to 26 feet) from the ground. Kestrels prefer nesting in elevated locations such as trees.

2. Open Habitat: Position the box in open countryside setting or agricultural area, ideally near fields or meadows where kestrels can hunt for their preferred prey: rodents and small mammals.

3. Orientation: Face the entrance of the box towards a sheltered direction, away from prevailing winds and direct sunlight. This ensures a comfortable and protected environment for nesting kestrels.

4. Clear Flight Path: Ensure there are no obstructions obstructing the flight path to the box, such as branches or wires. Kestrels require a clear approach and departure route for easy access.

5. Privacy and Seclusion: Choose a location away from high human activity or disturbance. Kestrels prefer quiet and secluded environments for nesting and hunting.
