Widespread across open lands and cities of Europe, Africa, and
Asia, the common kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) is one of the most
abundant and studied birds of prey. This book brings together and
synthesises the results of research on kestrels for professional
ornithologists and scientists that seek to consolidate a vast body
of literature. It is also a reference for those readers who may not
have the depth of scientific knowledge to navigate new fields of
scientific enquiry. It examines many aspects of the species'
biology, from the reproductive strategies to the behavioural and
demographic adaptations to changes of environmental conditions. It
also discusses the roles of physiology and immunology in mediating
the adaptability of kestrels to the ongoing environmental changes
with a particular focus on contaminants. This volume presents new
and exciting avenues of research on the ecology and behaviour of
the common kestrel.
