hawked again Posted September 13, 2014 Report Posted September 13, 2014 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-29178662 This is towards the bottom of the page and I think it is being said by the RSPB. Other factors being investigated as possible contributors to the decline include: climate change, increased competition for nest sites, a rise in the use of rat poisons and intra-guild predation (which is the negative effects on kestrels from larger predators like goshawks and peregrines).
