Not quite sure what is expected of this year so far, but I reported on a
kestrel nest on Urambi Hills near Kambah in October & November 2012. I do
not know the outcome beyond parents attending and bringing food to the nest
over a period of 3 to 4 weeks. A couple months earlier I saw 5
Black-shouldered Kites together with 3 clearly dependant young at the
entrance gate to Lions Village on Kambah Pool road.

Last year, when there was the mouse plague, several nests of kestrels were
reported.  As far as I am aware, this year there has only been the one
report, of a nest, which failed, at the Russell offices

And not many reports of black shouldered kites
