The kestrels belongs to the members of the falcon genus. These birds can be commonly found in the regions of the North America. They are prey birds having characteristic hunting features. The kestrels live in large broods. The large size of their broods result in the lower percentage of the parents who are living to the infants, and this affects the offspring care.
