because they are meat eaters

you can roast a chicken and pull it apart
after your done for sandwiches and whatever

put the leftover carcase out on a picnic table or other raised Flat spot
and watch them canabilize it...

during the summer they are busy making nests and Babies and they
also go around as Marauders steeling baby birds same as crows do.

one good thing about them is they eat the larger Grasshoppers
that the smaller birds have a tough time with

the other thing i like about them is they are your eyes in the sky
and very few feral cats ,foxes,and coyotes can sneak onto your property
"unseen" if you'll pay attention to the rapid alarm call they
make in unison.

OSPREY

Looks like i might have an Osprey
looking to build a nest in one of the mega
pine trees near the house...

at first glance i thought it was a seagull
because of the white color

Soon as he landed however, a Crow
let me know , the Osprey has landed

maybe it'll eat some mice too

Nice Osprey in the backyard....now you really have an excuse to go fishing to help feed the bird, make sure it feels at home, and soon feed the young ones!


Do osprey's take squirrel?

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

they swoop down and grab trout and fly away with them
not to sure how varied a diet they have or if they actually
eat land animals too
