Intense Wildlife Battle: Rat vs. Lesser Kestrel Mom Protecting Her Babies
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 кві 2023
- Rats are opportunistic feeders who eat almost anything they can find, including bird eggs.
Raptors, such as this female lesser kestrel, will protect their nests from potential threats, even sometimes to the death. They are known to vigorously defend their young, using their sharp talons and beaks to fend off intruders. Luckily, the female kestrel was able to scare it away in the bed.
These videos are meant to document the lives of wild falcons and other birds in order that we can learn more for both educational & research purposes and serve as an aid for the species conservation effort. We do not set up/ stage or intervene. All the videos in this stream are documenting wild lesser kestrels.

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.

Rat was like
Chicken dinner tonight..
omg I'm the dinner !
Whoa that rat was huge! Good job mama! She's a good protector.
no thats not accurate
the food manage to retreat is more accurate
Animals aside from man have nothing but instinct to try to perpetuate their species. Man is lucky to have brains and opposable fingers.
RAT: ayee dinner
KESTREL: what a coincidence!
Not the best place for a rat...
Yea rats should be living in holes
for the next brood, the nesting box must definitely be better secured against intruders. The rats come to the box more often
Almost like having a pizza delivered to you when you didn't even order it :D
She didn’t even let the rat come to the surface and attacked while the rat was hanging in the air 😮
Whatta mom 😍
wonder what would have happened if the mother was not there 😭
@@diegoriosmx606 that’s obvious. They’d all be eaten.
Funny how after the meeting she just:oh one of the kids misplaced let me fix it
😅 The mama; she took care of business, didn't she?
"...mum I'm cold..."
"Huh? Oh crap, sorry-hold on I'll get you!"
(turns and forgets kid a bit)
"...mama help..."
"AH RIGHT RIGHT, SHIT- sorry baby. I didn't mean that. Stressful day. Now get under my ass."
Very good maternal instinct
Oh I see, she’s trying to protect one of her own baby that was previously left exposed. And she did this with so much care as she was able to have one of her babies, safely joining the others in her care. ❤❤❤❤❤
great mom😘
Pulling in her chick... So smart!
Yes, what a good mom she is! That was just so sweet. It's just too bad she couldn't get that rat.
@Tony Paterson Oh thx for telling me that.
@@simplycurlyde I assumed by getting the rat you meant she couldn't kill the rat and then feed it to the babies when it came in.
YOU PICKED THE WRONG HOUSE FOOL
The way that bird spread its wings out. Looks like it was about to do some karate moves
Kids, who ordered rat for dinner?
If the mother hadn't been there it would of of been heart breaking to watch those chicks being taken away by the rat.
that's because she don't know to build door.
That rat knew he F’d up before his feet even hit the floor.
I have more respect for this Kestrel than most parents in this society
good maman! god protect her and her babies!
紅隼真的有責任心
Pretty sure rats are also part of Kestrel's diet, that rat just tried to serve itself instead.
Well, yes and no. Black rats (Rattus rattus) and young Brown rats (Rattus norvegicus) are definitely occasionally part of the kestrel‘s diet. A huge adult brown rat like the one in the Video would be way too big to be targeted by a Kestrel though.
Rat : Sorry Mr.Kestrel thought you were a wee Lil' Pigeon , hard to tell in the Dark ! see-ya
Good strong protecting mama ❤
La Curiosidad Casi le Cuesta La Vida a La Rata,...
Dinner delivered 😂
That rat made a mistake.
He’ll never do that again.
00:52 she lost a beautiful tail feather while doing her wing-fu :)
Esso que é uma grande mãe incrível, como os animais dão grande exemplo a nos ser humano racionais 😢
“Sorry, come back here few weeks later.”
Are we gonna ignore the fact that rat came from the roof ✋😭
My cockatiels bite's pretty damn hard, that rat must've been getting about ten times that, I'm surprised it got away with its hide intact
Mom...☺️
Esse rato é folgado 😮
Miseriqueima tá amarrado
Скворечник сделан плохо. Нет козырька и большое крыльцо для входа.
Посмотрите инструкцию как сделать нормальный скворечник.
❤❤❤
Перетаскает крыса птенцов, пока мама на охоте будет
The Kestrel got mad because it didn't order take out. 🤗😂🤗
Rat: nope I’m out ✌️
Impossible situation!😎
The eggshells were getting in the way.
Aren't rats part of a kestrel's' diet?
Actually a rat would be big prey for a Kestrel to take down. Typically they hunt large insects, small birds, and mice. They are about the size of a Rock Pigeon you see in the city. So they are quite small for a Bird of Prey. Not to mention the fact that Rat's in general are pretty brazen and have a good set of chompers in their mouths. They can also inflict damage when they need to. I have nearly 40yrs of experience in the avian field having dealt "hands on" with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey.
That Rat lucky to get out of their with its life.
If those Talons would have gotten into the Rat, it would have been game over.
Kestrels kill by using their talons, but they need to be moving quite fast to be effective.
The rat was probably fairly safe as the mother kestrel didn't have space to attack at speed.
😅 That mamas not playing around
What exactly the rat was trying to do, she's not match for a kestrel? In fact rats are on the kestrel's menu.
Not necessarily. Smaller rats can be hunted, but the ideal size of a kestrel prey is a mouse. Adult big rats like this one is too much for its talons.
Dinner AKA snack
Save birds
Kkkkk esse escapô fedeno, ja que ele é.o lanche deles se lascô,nem precisava saí pra caçá lanche vei em casa 😂😂😂
Mom bird was in stress
Super mom
Get that rat mama!!!!!
Hoo he could have be a meal for them.
He wanted to eat and was nearly eaten.
Rodent's revenge.
The rat did not had a chance
wow, smart kestrel that baby would of died if she didn’t pull it in
Rat: oh dinner
Kestrel: Get the hell out of my barn house and leave my chicks alone
Papa Kestrel out, picking off the rats family one by one.
可惜沒抓到，自動送上門的食物啊
Я не понял,а где крыса делась?
MOM IS MOM
Uber eats for Kestrals!
Жаль удрала крыса. Эта еда вообще оборзела
No chance for the rat.
King Kestrel
Zouden mensen ook moeten doen
No contest.

I hope a random homeless person walks by and presses some ham against the owls house.
外卖到了😂😂😂😂
Goddammit I hate rats!
😂😂😂❤
Its a shame she didnt catch it,..that would have been a good meal
Awesome mama take her chick together.
Let the rat 🐀 try that with an owl 🦉 in residence.
Думаю сапсан его запросто уничтожить.
سبحان الله
Where is the father
Wao
Seema❤
Hello!
Lmaooo it comforts it's baby by humping it's face. "Don't be scared baby mama is gonna dry hump your face and make you forget about the scary rat by doing something much more scaring to you now shut up and take it skwah! skwah! skwah!" Lmao
Well bless your heart. Do other people actually think your comments are funny? This video sure has attracted some 🆔 iots.
The rat meets its predator
that rat picked the wrong time and place to fuck with the mother hawk.
Крыса после этого и кур будет бояться, узнав что это тоже пернатая
I hope that rat doesn't come back. It was clearly after those chicks, and it will wait until mom isn't home and bite and pick away at those chicks until they die.
If something doesn't eat the Rat first...lol
Hawks, Owls, Eagles, Feral Cats, etc....
