Awwwww the babies!!! Was so funny when all of a sudden Martin stops feeding them, how they all stopped chirping at once. And I found is so funny, I laughed out loud. Their little faces!! Awwwww.
Ha, that is called mantling the food. All birds of prey would do that after they attain a certain age in their growth curve but here she (apparently, because of the size) failed at mantling because the food did not come in one piece!!
Simply Incredible Martin!! The survival Gene!! they are takin the food from you ...Like you was there best drinking Buddy!!! LOL..from being so frail at birth...Growing strong and so fast to beat the odds against them. Martin thats one Job that looks so rewarding thanks
cute as all get out! l've been watching the peregrine falcon nest cams a couple of years now. they're great! fave would be Great Spirit Bluff. the parents often feed the young birds they catch. they have enemies such as owls; l sort of forgot which.. last summer the mom kept watch each night. they are madly hungry all the time it seems and they also seem to get big very fast. 1st time l've seen young kestrels!
I really love watching kestrel chicks in the nest. Yes, they are really aggressive for the food at feeding time and I've watched them rip many mice to shreds while fighting over them. But, I've also noticed they're generally not too aggressive towards each other. I don't believe I've ever seen an instance of siblicide , like you do occasionally see with other types of birds of prey.
The mother kestrels in England feed their chicks in turns, everyone getyomg a share. At least that is what I saw on Robert Fuller's channel. So no siblicide. However the youngest and weakest chick sometimes does not make it to fledging.
I had to laugh. Martin said, "As you can see these don't make good pets." Response: As you can HEAR these don't make good pets. That competition, the demand for food, CONSTANTLY. I COULD UNDERSTAND why they get kicked out of the nest. I COULD ALSO UNDERSTAND the NEED TO GET FOOD to SURVIVE. I LUVVV THEIR DRIVE TO LIVE!!! GOOD JOB, MARTIN!!!
Look I know I'm 8 years late, but birds of prey get water from the meat! Also, there are no colour differences in males and females. It's the size. Males are smaller, females are larger
I want to have a pet like this, it's so awesome to watch them feed. But I don't want them to be in need of rescue. Maybe I should have been working in a falconry centre.
You are right, they are definitely "not for pets." Super loud, but cute. They are cute when they are little... but imagine one of those things 7 feet tall >
They are Kestrel falcons. Their natural diet is large insects, mice and very occasionally small birds. Martin feeds them them close to the same until they are ready for release.
Yes and no. They have strong instincts, and hunting has be figured out the hard way. We can try to help initially, but it comes down to trial and error. Some get it figured out, some don't.
Hi Peter, thanks for your interest and that is a good question! It is mostly instinctual and also a judgment call by Martin. He needs to recognize the bird is mature enough or recovered enough face the wild. He mentions this part in many videos, but maybe that would be a good topic for its own video.
We deal with so many species of birds, it really depends on their dietary needs. If your would like additional information, please contact us directly at www.gowildlife.org
Did you not watch and listen to the video? He is feeding them pieces of mice called pinky’s at the pet stores. All the answers to your questions are in the video. Pay attention and you won’t be asking silly questions that have been explained.
Hi I found a few days ago a young Falcon in Ukraine it cannot fly an am thinking he only about 5 weeks old. I took him home and been caring for him can you tell me what food I should be giving him.
Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah thank u for the response... bt i live in india... in india we dont get mice or wild bird food... instead what can i feed for a baby? , can i feed chicken and fish?
Jassi Brar dear... thr r mice bt the one which he is feeding we dont get it her in india... and its nt tat easy as well to get... only in lab testings they use such mice... we cant purchase it frm them
Don't they need their parents to teach them what to eat, where to find food, and how to hunt? Have orphaned falcons released to the wild actually been followed to see whether they survive?
Nebu Losa Those are not birds tho are they? They arent taught how to fly either. They just DO IT lol. It's in their DNA, etc etc. They don't perch on a tree while mom is like ok watch while i catch this mouse. Nope, they just catch the damn mouse LOL. Instinct
dedfed321 Was that question really for me? I'm not too familiar with birds. I do know that they train a lot on the nest before they try to fly. They keep flapping their wings until they can lift themselves off the nest. I don't know whether their parents assist them with flying, but they certainly help them find food in the first weeks/months after they leave the nest.
bet that was a boy who fledged first! just to get away from the greedy sister. (sometimes that's sort of how parents encourage that or the peregrines in the nest boxes anyway.)
Omg cutest thing ever when it grabbed that big piece of meat by itself!
Cute and tough!
Adorable, in their own noisy little way! Thanks for taking care of the babies!!
Noisy for sure!
God bless! I think they are enjoying their food. God bless the hands that are feeding them. !!!
They grow fast!
Awwwww the babies!!! Was so funny when all of a sudden Martin stops feeding them, how they all stopped chirping at once. And I found is so funny, I laughed out loud. Their little faces!! Awwwww.
Wow! That one little one tried to cover the bowl with it's wings. They are so cute and so so beautiful when they grow up!
Ha, that is called mantling the food. All birds of prey would do that after they attain a certain age in their growth curve but here she (apparently, because of the size) failed at mantling because the food did not come in one piece!!
Omg they're soooo cute!!
Cute and a handful!
That one near the end is already hiding the foor with its wings, love it
Instincts!
@@GowildlifeOrg Instincts are amazing, and the work you do is also amazing. Thanks for replying
Oh no! They're way too fricken adorable! My heart just melted!💗💗💗
They are cute but tough!
They are so sweet. God bless.
They are!
They're so cute! Little baby birdies. :)
What a wonderful video. You truly do amazing work. God bless you and your mission.
Thank you Karin
Lord almighty, even at that age, you they are so aggressive! What a fit they start! LOL.
your a good man
Simply Incredible Martin!! The survival Gene!! they are takin the food from you ...Like you was there best drinking Buddy!!!
LOL..from being so frail at birth...Growing strong and so fast to beat the odds against them.
Martin thats one Job that looks so rewarding thanks
Susan, Thank you very much. This was very interesting. I really enjoyed watching these little guys "chow down".
God bless you, Martin & Sue.
Thank you! We appreciate your interest!
when so you get to sleep? They are adorable. I love the vocals smiles you all are such heros
When they get big enough to return to the wild!
the dominant bird snatching all the food LOL
Beautiful
Thanks for watching
很喜歡看喂小烏。thanK you。

It varies from nest to nest

I thought you were going to say the pinkie mice cost 50 cents a POUND!
I’m shocked!
it's the shipping fees that get us
That little girl is a savage!
Agreed!
OMG IT IS SOO CUTE LIKE WHAT THE HECK
Not as easy way to grow up!

Very nice - Please can you tell me how you know (male or female) and how to make them drink the water - thank you - ^ _ ^

Thank u for information

They SUPER FUZY! That's the 2nd cute part of baby birds.
omg ! they are so hungry
SO TINY
I want to have a pet like this, it's so awesome to watch them feed. But I don't want them to be in need of rescue. Maybe I should have been working in a falconry centre.
Falconry is a big commitment!
@@GowildlifeOrg I believe so.
These are not pets these are wild animals
You are right, they are definitely "not for pets." Super loud, but cute. They are cute when they are little... but imagine one of those things 7 feet tall >
PhereTaggs they could become pets if cared for properly
PhereTaggs I doubt seriously that they will grow to 7 feet tall. Maybe two feet from beak to tail feathers.
then they will be like Bloodwing ;)
Kestrels are actually small
They are noisy!!!🤣
Expressive!
@@GowildlifeOrg 5:10 The one in the dish is spreading the wings to "protect" the food, is there a word/phase for that behavior?
🤗😍😍😍😍
RIP ears
what do i do with a hatchling thats a day old? fell from a light post, one baby is eaten by ants the other im trying to save,, help
Call vet for reference to wildlife rescuers on your area
@@sandrasharp2934 you were too late
@@imameanjerkthatgoesaroundy2965 Only by a couple years, should be fine!
What do you feed them brother?
Can you feed them something veg or mixed with fish food ?
Pls help
What else are you feeding them besides pinkies?🤔
They are Kestrel falcons. Their natural diet is large insects, mice and very occasionally small birds. Martin feeds them them close to the same until they are ready for release.
What do hawks eat.
It all depends on the type of hawk and where they are hunting at. Belle, our Harris Hawk, hunts jackrabbits and cottontail.
What is that metal thing your using?
Hi Dorianne, Martin sometimes uses forceps to keep his hands a little safer from getting bitten during feedings.
Do the birds just naturally know how to hunt when they are released to the wild?
Yes and no. They have strong instincts, and hunting has be figured out the hard way. We can try to help initially, but it comes down to trial and error. Some get it figured out, some don't.
@@GowildlifeOrg , Huh! Thanks for taking the time to educate me.
They learn from watching the parents. Without any parents maybe they can watch a video.
@@zacharycat, Heh, heh, heh...ROTFLOL!
@@zacharycat 😆
2023 attendance 👍🏻❤️
how do you learn them to hunt for them self is what I wonder.
Hi Peter, thanks for your interest and that is a good question! It is mostly instinctual and also a judgment call by Martin. He needs to recognize the bird is mature enough or recovered enough face the wild. He mentions this part in many videos, but maybe that would be a good topic for its own video.
Usually predatory birds cannot survive in the wild after being raised by humans.
What kind of meat or food at home I can leave for babies I have in my window? Don’t have access to wildlife services/vet where I am
We deal with so many species of birds, it really depends on their dietary needs. If your would like additional information, please contact us directly at www.gowildlife.org
Will they survive in wild if released as they don't get to learn from mommy how to hunt
Yes, raised properly they will have the basic skills and instincts to take care of themselves.
I thought if you give animals food they forget how to hunt, is this true?
Good question, thanks for your interest. We'll add it to our list for an "Ask Martin" video then we'll ask Martin is he'll do a "Ask Martin" video.
AugustAdvice no
AugustAdvice they're babies they will learn what to eat once they're weaned
they are imprinted to humans and couldn't be released in the wild.... it's beautiful to have saved them for sure 😍😍
Pascale You are very wrong with your statement. Be more informed before commenting on something you obviously know little about.
i want one
To have one as your hunting companion, you must become a falconer
SubhanAllah SubhanAllah Alhumdulla what a nice and cute bird.
Agreed!
Do You give them water too?
They get water from the meat
Why the small one is small though you assured equal feeding for all? Was it a male chick?
You hatched it from the eggs?
No, these ones were rescued when a tree got cut down.
Don't mess with falcons!
what wee you giving the to eat
Did you not watch and listen to the video? He is feeding them pieces of mice called pinky’s at the pet stores. All the answers to your questions are in the video. Pay attention and you won’t be asking silly questions that have been explained.
what did you feed them ?
pinkie mice
Hi I found a few days ago a young Falcon in Ukraine it cannot fly an am thinking he only about 5 weeks old. I took him home and been caring for him can you tell me what food I should be giving him.
Mice baby birds and chunks of bird meat
Carluchi DiSieno did it make it?
it looks like it, he has tons of videos with a falcon.
what kind of falcon?
Kestrels, one of the most smallest falcons. Let's just say, they're the size of a cockatiel
dear can i get to knw wat r u feeding them... ?
Hi Nammu, Martin is feeding them pinky mice.
Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah
thank u for the response... bt i live in india... in india we dont get mice or wild bird food... instead what can i feed for a baby? , can i feed chicken and fish?
That would depend on the region and exact type of baby. Best move is to find a local wildlife group for assistance.
Nammu David what do you mean we don't have mice in india ??? are you joking ? there are mice every where lol !
Jassi Brar dear... thr r mice bt the one which he is feeding we dont get it her in india... and its nt tat easy as well to get... only in lab testings they use such mice... we cant purchase it frm them
Don't they need their parents to teach them what to eat, where to find food, and how to hunt? Have orphaned falcons released to the wild actually been followed to see whether they survive?
+Nebu Losa Instinct
+ImpossibRu Apparently instinct does not work for cats, big or small.

+Nebu Losa actually i would use your thought particularly about flying, generally young birds needs assistance from their parents to master flying

它们就像一个星期没吃饭了，这么着急😂
American Kestrel?
why not put together with cuckoo bird?
Why?
I have one it is a good pet eats live birds in the back yard
i have one do you want it?
Those are not two-week old kestrels, they have to be 6~8 days old...
Eagle for kids
so you have many hawk
Keanna Cosiñero ñ

aww i have a bid but it wing broke
Why don´t you just feed them separately?
birds don't do that.especially baby birds
My Dad found a dead flacon
😮😮😮😮😮😮😮☺☺☺☺☺☺☺
MURICA!
hepsine eşit versene.
qute
Can I have one
these are wild birds !!! no pets !!!
You can only have one if you're a falconer. Otherwise, it's illegal
Why dont u just feed them chicken?
Martin prefers to feed them a natural diet - food they would likely be hunting in the wild. They need the whole animals, not just meat.
ummm.... what happen to the younger one there were actually four baby falcons right??!!
Extrovert and introverts
