Vicious Attack!
Not all birds of prey have talons and sharp, curved beaks!
Watched a RAVEN ravage a morning dove's nest this afternoon. Saw the adult dove fly to the ground injured but not mortally. Think it later recovered. Then saw the raven fly off with a chick in its beak to another tree. This was no small chick: covered in almost mature features and about 1/2 size or better than the adult. The nest was in a Colorado Blue Spruce in a fairly open, exposed area.
A 2nd chick flew to the ground and disappeared. The raven (same/different?) returned a short time later looking for dessert?

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.
