All the things Mike has stated could well be the reason, but without a little bit more information it really is impossible to say...

A Kestrel's home range can be anything between 1-5 square miles so perhaps they're just trying a different place.

Hi Lorraine,

Maybe they were young birds that have dispersed now? or perhaps the food source has thinned out a bit so they are hunting just a little farther away.

I am sure there are a few other explainations that more experienced birders may point out.

Regards

Mike Price
