Birds are crazy. Their self protection brain is virtually non existent with species when it comes to protecting their young. My friend and I had some tiny little bird attack us, was a ground dwelling type in a field in Vermont. We could have easily stepped in it, I’m sure any predator the size of a rat could squash it, but it simply did not care. The ferocity this thing had even scared us and that big bluffing is exactly how that species has survived. This thing would have ran off an elephant it’s every was so boss 😂
"...mum I'm cold..." "Huh? Oh crap, sorry-hold on I'll get you!" (turns and forgets kid a bit) "...mama help..." "AH RIGHT RIGHT, SHIT- sorry baby. I didn't mean that. Stressful day. Now get under my ass."
Oh I see, she’s trying to protect one of her own baby that was previously left exposed. And she did this with so much care as she was able to have one of her babies, safely joining the others in her care. ❤❤❤❤❤
Well, yes and no. Black rats (Rattus rattus) and young Brown rats (Rattus norvegicus) are definitely occasionally part of the kestrel‘s diet. A huge adult brown rat like the one in the Video would be way too big to be targeted by a Kestrel though.
Actually a rat would be big prey for a Kestrel to take down. Typically they hunt large insects, small birds, and mice. They are about the size of a Rock Pigeon you see in the city. So they are quite small for a Bird of Prey. Not to mention the fact that Rat's in general are pretty brazen and have a good set of chompers in their mouths. They can also inflict damage when they need to. I have nearly 40yrs of experience in the avian field having dealt "hands on" with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey.
Kestrels kill by using their talons, but they need to be moving quite fast to be effective. The rat was probably fairly safe as the mother kestrel didn't have space to attack at speed.
Lmaooo it comforts it's baby by humping it's face. "Don't be scared baby mama is gonna dry hump your face and make you forget about the scary rat by doing something much more scaring to you now shut up and take it skwah! skwah! skwah!" Lmao
I hope that rat doesn't come back. It was clearly after those chicks, and it will wait until mom isn't home and bite and pick away at those chicks until they die.
Rat was like
Chicken dinner tonight..
omg I'm the dinner !
RAT: ayee dinner
KESTREL: what a coincidence!
Whoa that rat was huge! Good job mama! She's a good protector.
no thats not accurate
the food manage to retreat is more accurate
Animals aside from man have nothing but instinct to try to perpetuate their species. Man is lucky to have brains and opposable fingers.

Not the best place for a rat...
Yea rats should be living in holes
😂😂😂😂😂
for the next brood, the nesting box must definitely be better secured against intruders. The rats come to the box more often
Funny how after the meeting she just:oh one of the kids misplaced let me fix it
😅 The mama; she took care of business, didn't she?
"...mum I'm cold..."
"Huh? Oh crap, sorry-hold on I'll get you!"
(turns and forgets kid a bit)
"...mama help..."
"AH RIGHT RIGHT, SHIT- sorry baby. I didn't mean that. Stressful day. Now get under my ass."
Almost like having a pizza delivered to you when you didn't even order it :D
More like Chinese food

She didn’t even let the rat come to the surface and attacked while the rat was hanging in the air 😮
Whatta mom 😍
wonder what would have happened if the mother was not there 😭
@@diegoriosmx606 that’s obvious. They’d all be eaten.
YOU PICKED THE WRONG HOUSE FOOL
Kids, who ordered rat for dinner?
great mom😘
Pulling in her chick... So smart!
Yes, what a good mom she is! That was just so sweet. It's just too bad she couldn't get that rat.
@Tony Paterson Oh thx for telling me that.
@@simplycurlyde I assumed by getting the rat you meant she couldn't kill the rat and then feed it to the babies when it came in.
@@simplycurlydekestrels are too small to get a rat that big but they can still defend though
If the mother hadn't been there it would of of been heart breaking to watch those chicks being taken away by the rat.
that's because she don't know to build door.
Very good maternal instinct
That rat knew he F’d up before his feet even hit the floor.
Pretty sure rats are also part of Kestrel's diet, that rat just tried to serve itself instead.

good maman! god protect her and her babies!
I have more respect for this Kestrel than most parents in this society
Good strong protecting mama ❤
That rat made a mistake.
He’ll never do that again.
Rat: oh dinner
Kestrel: Get the hell out of my barn house and leave my chicks alone
Rat : Sorry Mr.Kestrel thought you were a wee Lil' Pigeon , hard to tell in the Dark ! see-ya
00:52 she lost a beautiful tail feather while doing her wing-fu :)
“Sorry, come back here few weeks later.”
My cockatiels bite's pretty damn hard, that rat must've been getting about ten times that, I'm surprised it got away with its hide intact
Are we gonna ignore the fact that rat came from the roof ✋😭

Esse rato é folgado 😮
Miseriqueima tá amarrado
La Curiosidad Casi le Cuesta La Vida a La Rata,...
紅隼真的有責任心
Aren't rats part of a kestrel's' diet?
Rat: nope I’m out ✌️
Esso que é uma grande mãe incrível, como os animais dão grande exemplo a nos ser humano racionais 😢
The Kestrel got mad because it didn't order take out. 🤗😂🤗
The eggshells were getting in the way.
Dinner delivered 😂
That Rat lucky to get out of their with its life.
If those Talons would have gotten into the Rat, it would have been game over.

Mom...☺️
What exactly the rat was trying to do, she's not match for a kestrel? In fact rats are on the kestrel's menu.
Not necessarily. Smaller rats can be hunted, but the ideal size of a kestrel prey is a mouse. Adult big rats like this one is too much for its talons.
The way that bird spread its wings out. Looks like it was about to do some karate moves
that rat picked the wrong time and place to fuck with the mother hawk.
Скворечник сделан плохо. Нет козырька и большое крыльцо для входа.
Посмотрите инструкцию как сделать нормальный скворечник.
Impossible situation!😎
😅 That mamas not playing around
Save birds
Перетаскает крыса птенцов, пока мама на охоте будет
Mom bird was in stress
Food in the bed 😂😂
I hope a random homeless person walks by and presses some ham against the owls house.
❤❤❤
Papa Kestrel out, picking off the rats family one by one.
wow, smart kestrel that baby would of died if she didn’t pull it in
Я не понял,а где крыса делась?
Hoo he could have be a meal for them.
He wanted to eat and was nearly eaten.
The rat did not had a chance
Kkkkk esse escapô fedeno, ja que ele é.o lanche deles se lascô,nem precisava saí pra caçá lanche vei em casa 😂😂😂
No chance for the rat.
Get that rat mama!!!!!
Жаль удрала крыса. Эта еда вообще оборзела
Dinner AKA snack
Rodent's revenge.
MOM IS MOM
Uber eats for Kestrals!
Super mom
可惜沒抓到，自動送上門的食物啊
Goddammit I hate rats!
Let the rat 🐀 try that with an owl 🦉 in residence.
King Kestrel
Lmaooo it comforts it's baby by humping it's face. "Don't be scared baby mama is gonna dry hump your face and make you forget about the scary rat by doing something much more scaring to you now shut up and take it skwah! skwah! skwah!" Lmao
Well bless your heart. Do other people actually think your comments are funny? This video sure has attracted some 🆔 iots.

Where is the father
No contest.
Awesome mama take her chick together.
外卖到了😂😂😂😂
Думаю сапсан его запросто уничтожить.
The rat meets its predator
I hope that rat doesn't come back. It was clearly after those chicks, and it will wait until mom isn't home and bite and pick away at those chicks until they die.
If something doesn't eat the Rat first...lol
Hawks, Owls, Eagles, Feral Cats, etc....
😂😂😂❤
Wao
Seema❤
Hello!
سبحان الله
Крыса после этого и кур будет бояться, узнав что это тоже пернатая
