Once a bird of prey attacks, its claws are locked for a while. Nature's way of making sure prey doesn't get away. The bird couldn't have left even if it wanted to. Once the owl and the kestrel were physically able to let eachother go again, the bird started its escape attempt.

The only reason why I think it was 'controlled' is the kestrel was assessing the situation against 'two' birds vs. one.

The owls, if anything, may have been more paralyzed and what you're seeing is the owls freezing.

The intruder was flapping around a lot while trying to get out, and it could have been seen as yet another attack, but I think that the verbal communication was understandable for all parts and that’s why the owls leaned back while the intruder tried to get out.

Yea after watching this, I can actually notice that the owls move in a way that shows that they seem to be actively assessing the situation. I never really looked into how intelligent owls are known to be, but something about this situation shows me they’re either older and experienced or they are somewhat very intelligent

Facts about barn owls and owls: -Barn owls are actually not in the “true owl” family, rather they are in the “barn owl” family. -Barn owls are one of the most widespread species of birds; the range of the barn owl includes all continents but they are absent in certain islands, as well as polar and desert regions. -Barn owls are mostly monogamous and unless their partner dies, they typically mate for life. -Like other owls, barn owls have forward-facing eyes which offer binocular vision, similar to us. -Owls have excellent low-light vision, and are most likely nearly colorblind (this actually helps as seeing less colors makes it easier to distinguish prey in the night). -Owl vision is based on movement. -All of these adaptations can help an owl visually locate their favored small mammal prey in the darkness. -But it’s possible an owl’s hearing plays the strongest part in finding prey, even more than their sight. Their sense of hearing is actually better than their sense of sight! -Owls have very sensitive hearing and one of the best of any animal. In near darkness, owls can locate relatively distant mice by hearing their little footsteps!
@jace_dАй бұрын
Additional fact (months late lol): barn owls (as most owls) have different ear placement for each side of the head, that helps them better locate their prey's exact position based on sound.

(You do get the odd male with black spots, but their brown is still lighter than a female.) Who's incubating generally isn't a good rule of thumb for gender with a lot of birds though, some species they both incubate (some take turns swapping every hour or so, some have day/night shifts, the African Common Waxbill incubate together), with others only the female incubates, and with others only the male incubates.

Here’s a rundown: Kestrel was perched outside and likely aware that there were owls nesting there, but wasn’t sure if they were present at that time or not. Kestrel tries to land on the rim of the entrance to peer in but misjudges the width and ends up falling into the nest itself. Not good for Kestrel. The owl that confronts Kestrel is Owl A, which i believe is a male. The owl that defends the eggs is Owl B, female. Mummy. Both of their instincts kick in immediately and they know to function as a team and multitask by Owl A dealing with the threat and Owl B protecting the eggs. Kestrel falls in and Owl A positions himself beneath it to latch onto the intruder, but as Kestrel falls its own instincts kick in and it also latches, so both grab each other’s legs. Interestingly, Owl B moves as soon as Kestrel falls in and begins flapping her arms, which indicates she was trying to frighten the threat instinctively despite not needing to. Owl A is clearly experienced in bird-on-bird combat and immediately attempts to pin Kestrel to the floor by throwing it down. At this point Kestrel is in trouble and is well aware it has fucked up. It tries to release its legs with a kick but Owl A has it pinned there and Kestrel’s right talon has locked up, a problem for birds of prey as this means Kestrel cannot release itself from Owl A. As such, they wrestle for a bit but Owl A is much larger and stronger than Kestrel, and the fight takes Kestrel to the corner near the eggs, which greatly distresses Owl B. Realising it can’t escape, Kestrel starts making a distress call and this is also likely due to pain and stress. Neither the Kestrel nor Owl A want to harm each other, they would much rather they both go their seperate ways and avoid conflict, but Owl A doesn’t know if Kestrel will leave if it lets go, and is also likely confused as to why Kestrel is still gripping its leg. Kestrel ends up upright and Owl A settles, which settles Kestrel. The sudden shift in the dynamic of the fight results in Owl B leaning in and inspecting Kestrel, as she is confused as well. Why isn’t the threat moving anymore? Is it still a threat? She examines Kestrel very closely and this is also a show of dominance. Both owls are now aware that Kestrel is going to have a very hard time fighting them both and causing any major damage, it just isn’t going to happen. Kestrel knows this too as during the scuffle it had either forgotten there was a second owl or was simply unaware in the first place. Kestrel freezes in place so as not to give them any immediate reason to kill it. You can see by Kestrel’s breathing it is very, very distressed. As soon as Owl B moves away Kestrel makes an attempt at escaping and tries to leave, but its right talons are still locked and Owl A has his right talons locked on Kestrel’s left ankle. Owl A places Kestrel against the wall and Owl B begins a threatening motion which makes Kestrel less confident and less likely to attack. You can see Kestrel looking frantically at her at this point. Owl A then attempts (quite confidently) to bite Kestrel’s throat, and Kestrel recoils and starts going ballistic to get free. Owl A once more uses his superior weight and strength to pin Kestrel down and then bites out some of Kestrel’s plumage in an attempt to get to its flesh. This is when Kestrel becomes once more very distressed and starts calling again. Owl A gets a good bite on the back of Kestrel’s head but Kestrel manages to get its head free and tries to throw itself backwards away from Owl A. Notice that both owls are quite calm and neither one of them is calling or being very aggressive. Owl B settles on the eggs and Owl A is now intent on killing Kestrel. He begins applying more pressure and corners Kestrel, smothering it and probably biting a few more times. This is when Owl B becomes more active and Kestrel finally gets its legs free, flapping up and around frantically to stay out of Owl A’s striking range. Kestrel is so stressed that it is disoriented and it takes some time until it leaves.

@@CharterGroupBirdcams Thank you for the follow up. Last Spring I had a pair of nesting in a big tree in my side yard. They are colorful & good providers. Eventually two of the babies ended up on the ground & I was so worried since I have a guy who mows our 5 acres might run over them. But they did move to the church next door & were in 2 different trees & I guess the parents finished raising them over there. Fascinating.

Their predator sense was so goddamn present that was nerve racking you could sense death approaching at every second they were going for a brutal kill without a split second of pity gouging the eyes of this bird and killing it if it didn't defend himself being also a predator and going for the kill he would have died.

the restraining was the coolest part. it was interesting to see them gripfighting and grabbing one another's feet and ankles so they couldn't attack. it's rare to see such intelligent defensive actions in hostile, wild animal interactions. since they are both birds of prey they know that they both possess the same 'weapons'. bird grappling ftw!

I seen that I was aye yoooo they really smart honestly the hawk had him pin down if you seen not that I’m rooting on him but I’m very surprised he was able to hold him down with his claws and still lost really the the owl had that much strength but it was a very good video to watch

I think it is not rare to see such intelligent actions in general in wild animals, on the contrary. We just miss most of them.

GREAT JOB MOM AND DAD! Wow that was intense! It looks like Dad bit the kestrel and after that she is lucky to be alive! It’s amazing how you see the way the barn owl holds and grab their prey with their incredibly long legs and talons and that gives them the room they need to keep the prey at distant but just enough to still attack and hold

the kestrel was only looking into the nest to see if it was a suitable place to raise chicks. The owl actually dragged it inside if you look carefully.

MUSBFRANK the owl didn't have a good grip at first but when the Kestrel started to struggle, at 1:01 as they're staring into each other's eyes, the owl had the Kestrels one leg while the Kestrels other leg was holding onto the owls other leg. 😅 but after that it was the Kestrel again holding onto the owl and then next was the owl holding the Kestrel down. It's like a dance to the death.
