- The nestling in the corner died from natural causes and not by the rat (the two nestlings in the video survived and fledged). All the birds in this video are WILD and can enter and leave as they please. This video are meant to document the lives of wild lesser kestrels 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 are documenting wild animals.

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.

So, many bugs and critters inside the box. It's like a tiny ecosystem. That's amazing.
Yeah it’s gross
Maggots from dead kestrel
Meanwhile, the two kestrel chicks will have been traumatized by this scene ever since.
Répugnant, vous voulez dire…
The baby kestrel chicks will eat those bugs if they get hungry enough
All those worms and bugs crawling in the floor....
They help break down waste I think.
I think it's because the third sibling had been long dead? There's worms coming out of it..
All the bugs on the floor makes me get dizzy somehow from a moving floor lol
What are those bugs?
Maggots
@@rebeccaicerp they are mealworms. they are used to feed some ants lizards birds and other rodents.
@@TexanWithAKnife Are the eggs laid by dead carcasses?
@@TexanWithAKnifeэто опарыши, которые появляются в мертвечине. Личинки мух.
I guess this is good. It’s already dead so it won’t go to waste.
Lucky it didn’t go after the live ones.
I was so looking forward for mamma to come home‼️ 😔😉😎
Я тоже ждала, когда появится взрослая птица
Yeah, mom isn't playing around. I was hoping the same. xD
Eu acho q a mãe dos filhotes pode ter morrido ,pois aquele monte de larvas não estaria ali
scene out of a horror movie !!LOL rat maggots, blood sucking mosquitos, creepy crawlies.... and two freaked out their mind birds !!!
😂😂😂😂 creepy asf
Pretty sure they're beetle larvae, not maggots
@@alphabloodhawk yeah to big to be maggots but still a nasty nest !!!
@@YesItsReallyKeith True, it's pretty gross lol. But those beetles just eat dead leaves and other bugs. They won't bother the chicks.
That's a traumatic childhood for sure
I have never actually seen a rat because they are aggressively outlawed here in Alberta
Just look at the government lots of so called rats there
Это где это?
The good thing is that the 2 birds in the corner were huddled up to make themselves look bigger
Muy susio
rat at 2:10 : alright where were we, ok these two little chickies here are , umm not deceased, yet. my apologies!! 🙏🏽 ill return in about 48 hours or so if that fits in you guys' schedule.
The parents need to show up.
I mean they're out hunting, if they don't hunt constantly the babies will starve. It's already one that died of natural causes. I'm not going to question the parenting skills of a kestrel. It's like telling a single mom that works three jobs that she has to be home 24 hours a day
That’s so sad. They just had to look on in horror while their dead sibling was eaten right in front of them. Poor babies.
They would do the same to rats..
you have to admit its better than looking at your sibling dead in a corner Everyday 😐
They kept on screaming, which scared the rat multiple times. Clever birds.
@@dumbfukx yeah but no one cares as much cause rats deserve pain, unless they are the pet version with no diseases I hope all rays burn
I think the other chick's were actually happy. Dead sibling = a bigger share of food and mammy's love...
Poor baby chicks ! Hope the mama coming back
Мама уже мёртвая была. Крыса и ела опарышей от неё. Мне тоже жаль. У них не было шансов выжить.
They are lucky that rat didn’t eat them, rats can be very vicious. I hope those babies survive
"deadlock" OK perhaps you live in the country and know for sure, but that being said, that particular rat did not seem to be vicious or he would have immediately just killed the chicks and actually he was not too interested in eating the dead chick either and rats as unpopular as they may be in human thought, mostly search through garbage for human discarded food. There probably isn't a great many videos that show a rat killing and eating prey. Rats are the ones who are prey for snakes, hawks, coyotes and bob cats.
@@obscurelyvague i'm aware of all of that, i'm simply saying they are lucky it didn't because rats are omnivores, if they are hungry they are capable of killing for food. trust me, ive seen some shit. but thanks for your reply
@@deadlock9707 I have pet rats and have seen mine pounce on and kill huge spiders they are intelligent creatures
@@obscurelyvague You don't know that rats eat almost any small animals that they can kill. They often eat/wound chicken chics and bird chics that's why farmers and governments often have to kill them
I fookn hate rats
Is it normal for so many insects to be in the nest?
Yes, humid air filled with smell of flesh n poop
yep, dead animal in there so smell of flesh attracts flies, which lay eggs on the dead bird, hatching into maggots which you see wriggling around
@@mars.3051 the nestling died a few hours before the rat visited (and was eaten later). Not enough time for carrion flies to lay eggs and the whole maggots cycle. The crawlers in the nest scrape are beetles and beetle larvae that belong to the dermestidae family and clean the nest by consuming organic material e.g. dead skin, feathers dust, poop and little food leftovers. You can find them in many raptor's nests and they're doing a good service.
@@mars.3051 the big ones aren't actually maggots
@@tofi21 You are one smart cookie....thank you so much for your info and love from Canada
i love birds, Enjoy watching! keep safe!
Я тоже люблю птиц , но при этом ненавижу крыс!
Bro, this nest is crawling with a feast for the nestlings, all those bugs and stuff
E cadê os pais desses filhotes que estão correndo perigo.?
I love how they’re just screaming in the corner watching some intruder eat their dead brother
Creature you are a manless
How so you know what sex it was, just from a small pile of feathers and feet?
*WHAT'S TO LOVE SICKO??!!!!!!!!!!??*
Figures ... The parents wouldnt come home to take the rat down!
Но почему в гнезде столько насекомых, и возле мертвой птички и просто на дне гнезда, они кишат, настолько их там много!
Os insetos devido ao pássaro morto está saindo larvas dele
Awe. They're freaking out.
😂they scream in horror in unison. “ it’s eating his face and stomach, this is horrid.” And they still keep watching. 😂
Mane these rats can be deadly. There also another rat in the background crawling on another nest at this exact same time. I'm pretty sure they've killed many birds
They were scared to death, called for back up the whole time.
Our birds must be protected. Period.
0:34 what is that
@@slime18466 His secret weapon
Super big rat, will be a good meal for the kestrels
Or the other way around.
That rat is too big for a kestrel to hunt. Barn owl maybe.
"Ed Ong" Yes, it is the rat that is in trouble. He is where Kestrels are.
@@obscurelyvague Kestrels are tough, but they are small as far as birds of prey go. I've seen rats that size fight off kestrels, crows, ravens, and other tough birds, and even cats. If you watch a lot of film from this camera and other cameras, kestrels never bring back prey as large as this rat. It's mostly mice, small birds, insects, and small stuff like that. No way they kill a rat that size.
I think that rat is too big to kill
Those things are afraid of their own shadows!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Emaknye tuh burung kemane?????
A lei da natureza, um dia da caça outro do caçador
Я так боялась что крыса живых птенцов покусает .
Me too! (I know this is an old comment, lol. But I couldn’t help replying)
The one die must be from starving of no food from the parents.
It does not look like the rat ate it rather than chewed on it . He even just seemed to move it around but It even seemed that he may not have really eaten it at all. I am no expert but it seemed he was not really a threat to the two nestlings though they did have to be careful. Rats are scavengers but I don't think that typically they kill and eat live prey. It could depend too. Rats you see in cities may be different from those found in the country. They are more likely to go into garbage cans to look for discarded food.. It seems that if a rat is where there is no human-created trash he may eat nuts and berries, otherwise they may have to try hunting animals smaller than they such as frogs, insects and snakes which are more likely to eat rats. . Rats typically do not just hunt some animal, kill them and eat them. Also, though it can happen randomly or occasionally rats do not typically go up to humans to try and eat them. They would have better luck trying to do that to dogs and cats. Urban rats occasionally may attack and eat pigeons.
Rats also eat chicken chics in the farms or bird chics
Eek..no matter...
MAYBE it wanted to go back up N. for pizza in the city .can't really blame it..no snakes there etc
Il mange parfois les pigeons adulte
So many insects
Crazy how long the rat‘s tail is!
how does the rat get into the nest box while it is up? and I didn't know that a rat could eat birds and just to know whether a rat can kill an adult kestrel or a kestrel can kill a rat
rats can climb on attics and eat eggs or small chicks if they find any. I know they do it with pigeons
Rats will eat anything they can get their hands on
all depends on the rat an the situation. seen a rat kill a pigeon in seconds
@@Antoni0Didietr0 in new York City, rats are outright built different, they hunt and kill adult pigeons over here
Edit: they do this mostly at night, but there are rare occurrences where u can see them do this during the day
@@_MegaMind_ yea I know nyc rats are the biggest
No two parents one hunt one stay?
1:04 me watching a horror movie
It at least ate the dead one, not the two living birds
that nest is literally crawling with maggots
They're dermestid beetle larvae. They break down prey remains, down to the bone. They're like the cleanup crew of the nest.
@@lasigna0212 yes, I know.
I'm surprised this rat doesn't go for fresh meat..the two chicks here..instead of the dead one
@@lasigna0212 Actually maggots are helpful. There are times when medical personnel in hospitals use maggots' ( probably specially bred and "hospital grade " ones) to put in certain kinds of wounds to clean out the area.
@@obscurelyvague 🤢🤮😱
One year later.... The sequel... Kestrel eats live rat
Rat was just the clean up crew.
The nestbox floor reminds me of the tunnels behind the fireplace in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom!
My thoughts exactly and the rat the rats in the catacombs in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade may be with Star wars the first trilogy of course the 2 best trilogy movies ever!!
Imagine watching your sibling get ate right in front of you 🌚, at a point them two baby chicks were screaming silently 🤣🤣
They didnt see it. It's dark there.
That's why they didn't react, when rat returned, until it touched them.
この動画を見ると、ペットのヘビやトカゲに生き餌として与えられるネズミがかわいそうと思わなくなった😂
What is disgusting is the vermin that swarms in the dirt and the dead animal that remains in the nest. I thought that these chicks cleaned and threw the corpses of deceased chicks out of the nest.
it would be wise, because stink of decomposed flesh can attract more species.
and they can find it just when parents are not at home (like this time).
I'm really suprised they let decomposing body there.
If there was not a dead chicken then 1 or 2 of the chick's would have been on the menu, if a parent had turned up then the rat would have been fed to the chicks, nest box full of maggots etc from food fed to chicks, look gruby in there but this is sort of how we would have lived back in the day before we became more hygienic.
Зря так думаешь. Крыса никогда не нападает. Если, её справацировали, то она будет защищаться до смерти. Это очень умное животное.
@@user-ns3nw5gb3e Sorry my translater did not even pop up so I have no idea what your saying here, I've no idea what language your messaging in.
I hate rats. Where was the mother Kestrel? She would have mincemeat of this rat.
Chicks are scared for life after this.
Dimana orangtuanya?
Good afternoon. As I understood, the baby bird was already dead and rotten when the rat appeared, so possibly the rat was attracted by the smell.
It’s almost like the rat getting revenge on the parent kestrel for eating his brother
Man that’s quite the childhood, have a outsider come into your home, and you and your brother watch as the outsider eats one of your fallen brothers.
I would love for the mother to come in now they will have a nice feast with this nice juicy rat can't stand them it's disgusting well those kind of rats.
*Poor thing*
There are a lot of maggots🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛🐛
Well, someone had to clean up the mess. The nest is already a health hazard as it is now.
Someone please save the two chicks. They can hardly survive😥 full of maggots in the nest box, rat intruder, no food supply from parents
Insects are common in all raptor nests. The parents are still alive and are providing food. We understand your concern
Suggest you go watch Robert E Fuller at North Yorkshire how he provides support to help the birds
@@cookiebird308 The things Robert does are wrong. Supplementary food to chicks is bad because they still will not find enough to survive in the wild.
@@cookiebird308 that's a very fun and relaxing experience to watch his channel, but it's like a Disney bubble.
@@tofi21 what do you mean fun and relaxing?😥 I feel heartbroken to see these lovely chicks dying one after one. In N. America, we put out hummingbird feeders to help hummies to survive in winter when there's no flower or insect. The hummies are on their own when food source returned in spring. So I do not feel providing extra help is an intervention to the nature. After all, we're trying the best we can to help extinct animals.
All horror in chicks eyes till momma shows up
When’s that then?
Umm is it just me or is that floor moving.....
Semoga sukses
Itu ada ank burung yg mati kalin lihat yg di makan tikus.
Where's mama kestrel? Teach rat to get out
Um rato a noite ja roeu o meu dedo do pé! Verdade
嚇死寶寶了！😆😆
Sweet babies
Not for nothin, I really think the Kestrel should splurge for a front security door…IJS!
Эксперименты над птенцами ставите, чтобы в ящике их заживо кишащие черви сожрали, да крысу в нору запустили, чтобы доедала и показываете! Как же жалко жалко этих птенчиков! Безчеловечно так издеваться над птенцами! 😱
Не пишите чепуху❗
Это гнездо, где родители высиживали яйца и вылупились птенчики🐥🐥
По несчастному стечению обстоятельств туда залезла крыса😞
К счастью птенцам повезло, они уже выросли, летают и все еще продолжают ночевать в родном гнездышке👍а разные мелкие ползучие существа для птичек не помеха❗
Этот канал в Израиле делает грандиозную работу по защите и охране дикой природы и зсалуживает только похвалы👍🙏🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
@@Anney88 эксперименты над птенцами-это ужасно! Они находятся в неволе! Искусственное гнездо и камера! Полно червей и дырка для крысы! Хороши защитнички! А вы своё желаемое выдаёте за действительное, без царя в голове!
@@helene8946 Мадам, вы опять ничего не поняли, а по вечной рашистской традиции начали оскорблять❗😞Займитесь лучше самообразованием вместо пустых оскорблений👎🏿
В Израиле охрана дикой природы на высочайшем уровне, государство и добровольцы принимают активное участие в ее осуществлении❗👍
Не все птицы могут строить свои гнезда, как пустельги например, которые даже устраивают целые сражения за них. На данном канале есть несколько видео на данную тему.
У меня тоже сложилось такое впечатление. Как крыса туда залезла? Ее могли только подсадить. Она даже не знает как спуститься, когда вылезает из гнезда.
Конечно всё это умышленное издевательство под камерами. Видео "забавы" ради. Ужас конечно.
U know what though? if the baby birds did not screech all the time it would be hard for the killers to locate them..trust me!They r constantly mouth open screeching their ass es off!
😭
So the adults birds won’t remove a dead nestling?
So far I've seen several parents feed the dead nestling to the living ones, and maybe 1 remove it instead.
@@MorriAelthyn Yes the dead are instant food. Otherwise they are fertilizer.
Maybe the parents abandoned the nest
Those babies seem healthy enough and not abandoned
Yeah, these two are good. They had two siblings die though. Not because of abandonment, but just not quite enough food to go around.
What the heck sounds like Harry Warden in Henniger's Mine?
It keep on sniffing the two live ones it already had a meal I hate rats
What an inefficient eater. He could starve to death before he finishes that dead bird.
I feel so sorry for those kestrel chicks, i don't like rats,
Where are the parents?
They are on picnic
They dance
@Herbert WeinsteinFalcons don't hunt at night.
The mother used to stay with the nestlings at night when they were younger and needed brooding. Now she is roosting outside with the male during the night. Lesser kestrels are diurnal, they sleep at night and hunt during daytime. At this age the nestlings are alone and the parents only come to supply food.
So this is how they distribute parasites
Their panicked little breathes omggg poor babies
I know, right? I was actually afraid the rat was going to attack or eat the live chicks. 😞 They had to be terrified!
It’s sad how they cannibalism there own brother just to live you can see worms made a hole through he’s body so they can go in and out.
Both carnivorous so it evens out🫤
Where’s mum and dad, down the pub?
We are responsible for destroying animals habitat so, we need to repair the damage at least giving them some food and water in return.
It's a fkin rat, how is it our fault
Maggots are visible in the nest and in the dead kestrel..... 🤢
Maggots only eat dead tissue. They won’t hurt the living nestling. Not so sure about the rat, I was hoping it would take dead one and hit the road.
SO MANY OF THEM😳😰 THE BOX IS CRAWLING WITH WORMS!!!!!!!!!😧😨
Wonder if the nestlings can eat maggots?
They eat other bugs…
Tikus makan snak ayam.
I hate rats and bugs
Terrifying those babies
😮
There are enough insects that small birds could use as food.
The bugs 4:50
Karma is a b**** those birds are gonna grow up to hunt those rats.
birds can eat those maggots
😱😱😱
I need Donation a Cam to fix in my Cages
Los padres no llegaron 😕
쥐는 독술애기를 해칠수없다😳😳😳
I never see the mother bird
虫の成長から見て、親は大分戻ってきていない。倒れてるのが親鳥だったら絶望的だ。
😢😔
What are all those worms crawling around?
So the nestling died by parasites?
👍👍👍🙏
Mosquitoes all over those nestlings
