I believe that the field mouse or vole, or whatever the kestrel hunts marks concentric rings around its territory with urine. The mouse/voles urine comes up quite bright on the UV spectrum, so the kestrel often hovers where it can see these bright rings and keeps an eye out for the mouses/voles activity within the ring.
