Description
Schwegler Kestrel N° 28
The kestrel is an outspoken ground hunter, i.e. as a bird of prey he preys on his food on the ground. This bird is very popular with farmers and foresters because it prefers to hunt field mice, which together with other species of mice make up about 80 to even 90% of its food. Kestrels are very area loyal. This nesting aid, which has been tried and tested for decades, can be attached very easily and flexibly to almost any surface (e.g. with screw hooks, cable straps, saddle clamps, etc.).
