Well Yeh , I do believe that. Bout two ago, a few doors up from my house I came upon a Golden Eagle ripping a rabbit apart in the neighbors front lawn. It must have been close to three feet high and built like a Olympic wrestler. I was about ten feet away, it gave me ONE glance; that was all I needed. I had no thought of getting any closer to that meat slicing machine than I was. Really, if the thing so much as jumped ten inches in my direction I would have blown out my running shoes getting away (trying to anyway) from him. I am astonished any human has done this - my hat is off to them. Tho I do bet many of them are missing a nose.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" Amazing. I knew that falcons were used to hunt rabbits and small animals but had never heard of wolf hunting with birds.
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Like to see Sarah Palin master this method of wolf control.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" Thank you - this may be one of the most amazing clips that I've ever seen.
Her Royal Governess just tosses Holy Hand Grenades from low-flying airplanes ;-)
_________________________________________________________________________ I've seen red-tailed hawks eating mockingbirds in my yard. I don't know if they pick on mockingbirds by choice, or if it was just convenient.
Fast food, I guess.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" I had a parakeet that would take on a moth. Brutal bastard bird.
That confirms when I saw a mallard duck snap up and eat a butterfly as the butterfly flew by.
I see as many as 75 hawks hanging out on a field when I plow it ... waiting for small rabbits and mice ... they go for baby rabbits ... then they fight over the food ... tractor entertainment at its best !
Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces. De La Boétie
When I was in Mongolia I saw one of these things carry away a little Asian kid in its beak, never to be seen again. Now that I think about it, it might have been a Mongolian fly, since they are really big and have beaks and claws. I also saw a cow eat a baby chick one time. That one really happened.
Plowing, or shredding, a field can reveal all sorts of critters that may become bird food.
e training of this bird was seen as difficult and even perilous even by the experienced Synchy. the bird is never a slave of its owner, only a partner in hunting.
