| Resumo: | Common kestrel (Falco tinnnnculns) chicks from a small breeding colony in southwestern Spain Hedged an average of 31 d after hatching and remained at the colony, depending on their parents for food, an average of 16 more days. Fledglings perched close to and socialized with their siblings and unrelated fledglings. Fledglings started to use hovering flights a mean of 9.7 d after fledging. Social play, in the form of chases among fledglings, manipulative play with objects, and the capture of insects by the fledglings were observed before fledglings became independent |
