For at least 15 years the most beautiful kestrel pairs have been nesting in the walls of our gite. When we had the gite pointed we got the builder to leave a square opening high up in the walls. From our house we get a magnificent view of the birds sweeping into the hole and nest.
Sadly last year the many magpies round about, who can be very aggressive saw the pair off and we think they may have been the pair who ended up nesting at The Moulin of Varen.
This year they are back checking out the hole in the wall, swooping past our salon window which is on the second floor. We are remembering two years ago when we had our family in the gite and a large group of us were eating on the terrace in the evening, in the tree alongside were 6 baby kestrels being fed.
