Flyte Kestrel Nest Box

The Flyte Nest Box for Kestrels. A purpose-made, specially designed, roosting and nesting box for Britain's most common Bird of Prey.

The Kestrel Box should be mounted on its wooden bracket in an isolated tree or the edge of woodland, or on a building that can give a clear flight path to the box.

If there are no suitable trees to mount the nesting box, then it can be installed on a high pole or building with open views to assist the birds in their hunt for mice. However, try to ensure there are additional branches or ledges nearby to help fledglings when leaving the box.

The Kestrel Box should be mounted at a minimum height of 4 m (optimal height is 5 to 7 m). Preferably, mount the Kestrel Box facing east to southeast and away from the prevailing wind.
