Supporting Mount Diablo’s Kestrel Population

kestrel fledgling is released from a box at curry canyon ranch

Description Save Mount Diablo has installed 37 kestrel nest boxes on our properties that we monitor for activity. At least 75% of these boxes have successfully served as kestrel habitat. We've also worked with the Lindsay Wildlife Experience to successfully release kestrels on our land.
