Abstract     In the period from July 15th to August 10th 1995, some remains of prey and pellets were taken on six occasions by the author of this article from the nest of Hobby Falco subbuteo in the vicinity of Lesce in the Gorenjska region. The nest containing three chinks was situated in the Scotch Pine Pinus sylvestris woodland along the Sava river. The analysed sample contained remains of captured birds, rodents and bats as well as pellets of the young aged from ten days pnwards. The following animals were determined: Blackbird Turdus merula, Song Thrush Turdus philomelos, vole Arvicola terrestris, noctule Nyctalus noctula, and little bat Pipistrellus pipistrellus. Apart from the remains of feathers and hairs, yellow coverts belonging to either Greenfinch or the European Goldfinch, as well as chitinous remains of beetles and of a snail shell were found in the pellets.
Summary     V obdobju od 15. 7. do 10. 8. 1995 je avtor šestkrat pobral ostanke plena in izbljuvke iz gnezda škrjančarja Falco subbuteo s tremi mladiči v bližini Lesc na Gorenjskem. Gnezditveno prebivališče je bila savska dobrava, porasla z rdečim borom Pinus sylvestris. Analizirani vzorec je vseboval ostanke uplenjenih ptic, glodalcev in netopirjev ter izbljuvke mladičev, od približno desetega dne starosti dalje. Determinirani so bili: kos Turdus merula, cikovt T. philomelos, veliki voluhar Arvicola terrestris, navadni mračnik Nyctalus noctula in mali netopir Pippistrellus pipistrellus. V izbljuvkih je bilo poleg ostankov perja in dlake najdeno rumeno krovno perje, ki je pripadalo ali zelencu ali liščku, hitinski ostanki hroščev in ostanki polžje hišice.
