Wish we had more bird knowledge.

Why have we got three kestrels? Is it simply that there are two males after the same female? There is a lot of noise from them all but we cannot work out why three are hanging around. Also we have what we call the mating tree and have not noted the mating ritual being performed, although the frequency with which one takes food in to the nest makes you think that one must already be in, being fed and sitting on eggs. It is always possible that this pair have chosen another tree, which seems a bit inconsiderate to their hosts [ us] who like them to choose the best viewing points for us,  voyaeurs.
