The Great American Kestrel Nestbox Project
Manassas Battlefield Park in Virginia is home to a unique network of over a dozen American kestrel and barn owl nest boxes. S2S has received funding from the Hawkwatch Jerry Liguori Scholarship to revive this nest box network and expand it to the Shenandoah Raptor Study Area in Virginia. Over the next months, S2S will be building and installing these nest boxes in collaboration with master banders and kestrel scientists. Once the project is complete, S2S will ensure the new network will be monitored throughout the breeding season during the Spring and Summer of 2025.
