There, I warned ya.

If you chase raptors, you're gonna see predation. But this was new...for me.

Kleptoparasitism, or "parasitism by theft"...DYK ravens frequently steal dead prey from red-tailed hawks?!? 🤯

I decided to stay home sick, then I saw that the #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BackYardBirds, so of course I took my camera out there to see what might show up. This Verdin was there a few minutes later. I also used a B&W version of this image for my daily post on by blog www.tmpic.com/p/backyard-b...
