      @Brianna Sharon That's nonsense. You don't need to be "born wealthy" to be able to move into another place. Such victim mentality just makes you apathetic and passive. I'm currently unemployed, have been employed and unemployed during the years - lucks turns and turns again, and I and life go on. And during all that time, I have been living in multiple different places, in better and worse neighborhoods. Once I'll get a job again I'll also move again.
      In the future I plan to live in the countryside, where it's cheaper anyway. To achieve that goal I'm right now getting a new education, which isn't easy or fun, and has to be planned around where I get the money. One has to make something with their life and chase their dreams, even if they were more modest ones such as mine, not waste their time being jealous of others and feeling helpless.

    For four months I cared for a Krestel that had been shot down over a dove field. It didn’t need more care than I could give it. Below it adjusted well to me and our home (I was 14 living with my parents) I kept it longer than needed but one day I let it fly off. I’ve never forgotten my time with the bird; it left me changed for life. Thank you for making this and sharing.

      @@philsummerfield206 I agree that it is not complex, but it isn’t easy nor stress free. In some aspects, humans have even less to worry about as they do not live in the wild. They lack sentience, but still go through multiple fights and often end up not even living past their first year. I do not appreciate how you disregard any form of tension and emotion between inter-species rivalries, failure, providing for god who knows how many children + your spouse + yourself, etc. It is true that they have one purpose, but that purpose is to raise their kin, to fuel the next generation. This purpose means finding a nest, then impressing a female (if male), protecting their eggs from any harm before the children are even born, providing sufficient food for the family constantly, and fighting. Us humans sometimes interfere for worse as we cause problems like climate change and global warming. In conclusion, animals do not have it any easier than us and can still feel emotion and physical pain: they just do not know of their existence like we do due to their lack of intelligence.

    This was so wonderful to watch, I’m glad no prey came after they hatched and that the kestrels work as a team. It is so amazing that you shared this with us Robert, thank you so much! Can’t wait to see more of your videos, I am grateful to watch especially during the pandemic, it lifted me up!

    Love how they are smart enough to offer each other warmth equally. 17:05
    They seem to be aware of taking care of each other, unlike many smaller birds who just compete and dominate the other.
