American Kestrels are declining in North America and we are not sure exactly why. Join us in our conservation project to help American Kestrels stay strong and increase numbers in Illinois and elsewhere.
This is the perfect gift for your bird lover, and it helps in conservation of a species at the same time! The American Kestrel nest box/roost box are handmade boxes lovingly made out of cedar wood and are pre-assembled, ready to go.
Purchase includes a paperback book on the American Kestrel and a framed photo of our ambassadors 2 Toes and Sunshine.
American Kestrels are stunning little falcons. They are the smallest of our falcons in North America measuring about the size of a robin. Their prey mostly consists of insects, mice, snakes and other similar prey. They often hover in place over an area, scanning the ground below for movement. Once they spot their target, they swoop down swiftly and precisely to capture it. Females and males not only differ in size like other raptors they also differ in color as well with males being smaller and more vibrant, with blue-gray wings and a rusty-red back and tail.
Cost is $75 plus shipping. You can pick up at our rescue location or have it delivered for free if within 25 miles of Loves Park, IL
