More hatches at Belarus! It's hard to count with a chick pile, but I think the total is up to 4 chicks now.

P.S. Thanks, SGB, for the picture of Claudia's cute chicks.

Claudia is a really beautiful kestrel and her chicks are wonderful. Here's a selection of photos I've taken off the Italian forum:

Thanks to Julia, Luisa, Myriam and Sandrobio for the photos :italy

Beautiful snapshots, Warbler! Very good cam also.

Lesser Kestrels in Elyakim, Israel: we finally have a hatch in nest # 10 and I'd like to ask you to watch a few times - she was incubating 5 eggs, there's half a shell in the corner back left, the other half in the middle of the nestbox and then from time to time she leaves out one or two eggs that end up next to her side or behind her. But sooner or later another egg will hatch, they will hatch close to the same date. Female is very restless - maybe a first time mom.

Pay attention to 3:30 GMT (5:30 Israeli time), 9:30 EST, 6:30 Pac. Time) - when male (dad) is expected to hop in for taking the first shift - curious whether she will let him ....
and whether he brings food. Thx in advance! :offtobed:

sorry no snapshot yet.

Here

are the dates of the eggs of all the Kestrels we watch - add about 30 days from the date of continuous incubation(do we kno that) - it could be very near.

Warbler - Thanks for posting those wonderful pictures from Claudia's nest. She really is beautiful!

Bosuil - Thanks for the news from the Elyakim nest #10. (I wish I could check for more hatches, but that's one cam that I can't get to.)

:egghatch:

At the Bad Hindelang nest in Germany, there are at least 4 hatches (possibly even 5) .

This little chick is so beautiful, just like its mom Claudia!

Börni was taking a turn on the eggs this morning. I didn't see any pips in the eggs yet, but they should be hatching soon.
