רמת הנדיב משתתפת במאמצים לאישוש האוכלוסיה של הבזים האדומים בישראל מאז 2006. במסגרת פעילות זו, מגיעים לטיפול ברמת הנדיב בזים רבים מדי שנה - מרביתם פרחונים וגוזלים שנפלו מהקן ומיעוטם בוגרים שנפצעו. לאחר טיפול ואקלום, משוחררים בכל שנה כ-50 בזים צעירים, כשעל רגליהם טבעות זיהוי ממתכת ומפלסטיק. לפני שנה החל קינון של זוג בזים אדומים בתיבת קינון ברמת הנדיב. הזכר היה פרט ששוחרר ברמת הנדיב והנקבה הייתה ללא טבעות. הקינון הסתיים בצורה טראגית, כאשר מיינות טרפו את 4 הביצים שהיו בתיבה, והרגו את הבזה. השנה שוב הופיע זוג בזים אדומים, שזהותו אינה ידועה עדיין, על הכלוב, והחל לישון בתיבה. אנחנו מקווים שהשידור הישיר מהתיבה יאפשר לנו לשמור טוב יותר על הבזים, וכמובן שהקינון יצליח.

Since 2006, Ramat Hanadiv has been participating in efforts to rehabilitate lesser kestrels in Israel. As part of this activity, many lesser kestrels arrive to Ramat Hanadiv yearly - most of them as fledglings and nestlings that fell from nest and some were injured adults. After treatment and acclimatization, around 50 kestrel are ringed with standard aluminum and a plastic color rings are released back to nature from Ramat Hanadiv. In 2020, a wild pair of lesser falcons (The male was ringed) started breeding (laid eggs) in a nesting box but the nesting attempt ended tragically, when invasive common mynas killed the female and ate the 4 eggs. This year another pair of lesser kestrels have started to visit the nest box. We hope that the online camera will allow us to better keep track the kestrels breeding in hope that this year they will succeed.
In 2021 the pair returned, laid 5 eggs and successfully fledged 2 young.
The camera was added and maintained by the Charter Group Birdcams/ Charter Group of Wildlife Ecology (The Shamir Research Institute and the Department of Geography and Environmental Science of the University of Haifa) and funded by a private donor.

When did baby #4 pass away? What happened?

[@silvermainecoons3269]

@@YaelSharon3410 I don’t know but he looks really ill in this video. His eyes are all glazed over and he looks like he’s not fully conscious, poor guy.

[@Stephengrimes1972]

These lovely little things are hilarious,always fascinating to watch Unfortunately there’s also been some sadness as well.

CÓMO QUISIERA TENER CERCA DE MI ESOS POLLUELOS Y DARLES UN ALIMENTO SALUDABLE Y ADEMÁS ACONDICIONARLES BIEN SU NIDO, ESPACIO

[@someguyontheinternet2399]

Imagine what the snake is going through 😢

[@silvermainecoons3269]

Is it wrong that this made me laugh? Kestrel chicks are such savage little hoodlums, they make other raptor chicks look civilized by comparison. 😂😂

[@CharterGroupBirdcams]

I agree and these guys are so small.

[@silvermainecoons3269]

@@CharterGroupBirdcams That video of the kestrel chicks fighting over a chameleon was also a real eye opener for me. The poor thing ended up being served as lunch to his siblings, in less than 10 minutes he went from being a healthy kestrel to a pile of feathers and bones. I love your channel by the way, it’s very educational.

[@matahariback4654]

Please another snake eating when three chicks

[@ladychillmob1]

😂😂

[@icsesimleatsmalar133]

kestrel chicks not falcon

[@tofi21]

They belong to the falcons family

[@silvermainecoons3269]

Kestrel’s are falcons, same family but different species.

[@CharterGroupBirdcams]

Kestrels are indeed falcons. They are typically small falcons. Man y falcons do not have the name attached such as Peregrines or falcons. Simarily, hobby are also falcons.

[@Bigsluttyhoe]

Lol the first prt the sibling is all like hey there what's you eating? Can I have some. Lol
