Placing nest boxes for Lesser Kestrel in Alguaire drylans

Trenca has placed nest boxes for Lesser Kestrel in Alguaire drylands, after the warehouse where they were nesting being demolished. The placing of the nest boxes was carried out together with the DAAM of Lleida.

Some weeks ago, the owner of an agricultural warehouse demolished it without knowing that its roof was keeping the most important Lesser Kestrel (Falco naumanni) in Catalonia (15 – 17 pairs).

This led to a joint action between Trenca and the DAAM (Departament d’Agricultura, Ramaderia, Pesca, Alimentació i Medi Natural / Departament of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries, Food and Environment) of Lleida. We have made a verbal escrow agreement
