KF - Thanks for the news about the Boise kestrels. I just checked and no one was home. I also updated the link to the cam on the Kestrel Cam links page as the old link was outdated.

Hi Matrix. Actually, the Boise box has a round opening that's typical of kestrel nest boxes (sometimes the round opening at the left of the cam picture is cropped out on the posted pictures). The round opening is sized to allow kestrels in and keep larger birds out.

What sometimes appears to be a square or rectangular opening in the nest box is actually the sunlight streaming in through air vents near the roof of the nest box.

Boise, Idaho (from yesterday)

Note to Matrix: I was wrong about that rectangle near the floor of the nest box. I thought it was a reflection of light coming from the air vents at the top of the box, but I see now that it's clearly an opening. I would guess that it's there to allow extra light or provide extra ventilation in the nest box.
