I just watched a falcon make a kill in my yard.

It cornered its wounded prey and waited for it to make the first move before the final pounce. Then it waited for it to die before flying away with it. Very patient!

An owl once swooped down and tried to grab my dog. She's a big girl and couldn't. Really creepy.

@ImKelsey I had just adopted her and she was afraid to go out at night alone although she couldn't hold her bladder all night. We both went out and out of the corner of my eye I saw an owl on the fence. Next thing it's right there trying to grab her. She has white and brown spots, I figure the owl saw the white spots and didn't realize her size.

@curiosi She must be super scared now.

@ImKelsey Oh she was, took almost 2 weeks before she would go back out again at night.

One is actually a character in the SyFy I have written. I saw one kill a baby blackbird in its claws while flying and the mother attacking it.

Yes! This falcon obviously received high marks in its youth while attending Raptor Academy !!

What was the prey?
ImKelsey · 26-30, F
@quitwhendone A smaller bird.
@ImKelsey I hope the falcon ate well. Birds don't eat seeds and pieces of bread anymore?

They are powerful predators
I’m rooting for Atlanta this football season
