Nestwatch 2008 - Archive

No luck with the camera again, but video images of chicks coming soon!

After all the disappointments of last year, and now this year, the red kite nestwatch finally came to an end after the camera was relocated it was discovered the signal wasn't good enough to transmit live images over to the Garden Store.

A kestrel nest is now being watched by the camera, so check out the details of this with the Chilterns Conservation Board.

However, if you would like to read about the antics of more than a dozen kite chicks kept together in a holding pen, as well as watching footage of them learning to fly, preening, feeding and even sleeping, go to the 'Kite chicks Video clips' section.
