I returned on Wednesday night from a week away, and on Thursday morning discovered that a pair of kestrels had chosen my owl box for nesting. Later that day the male was sitting in a birch tree just outside the living room window with food (looked like a large insect of some sort), which it offered to the female when she showed up responding to his calls. She accepted the gift and he mounted her. Shortly after, they went over to check out their new home. On Friday I was working in the yard, and when the kestrels returned from doing their thing in the Valley, they seemed somewhat disturbed to find me in their territory. Today, Saturday, I didn't see or hear them at all. I wonder if they are not too keen on sharing space with humans (can't say I blame them). Doug Linzey Arlington, NS
