The kestrel at Théding: welcome!
Every spring, since 1996, a couple of kestrel comes to the attic of an old farmhouse in Théding to give life to nestlings. You can follow the kestrel in this natural adventure in real time or live the emotions of past years again thanks to the archives.

You can watch the live nest of the raptor couple, thanks to the active webcam during the months of March to July. But also, the photo and video galleries of the past years as well as the history that brings together the dates of laying, hatching and flights.
