Camera Mounted On A Falcon's Back. Falcon Takes Out Duck

[Dead Duck]

Awesome.

Sometimes you're the windshield
sometimes you're the bug
Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger
and sometimes you're the ball ...
Sometimes you're the Peregrine falcon
sometimes you're the duck

I'm not sure I like your tone.

Anybody noticed that there seems to be a lot more birds of prey sitting around in trees, compared to years ago? I have a lot of windshield time with my job sometimes, between Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and NY. I see a lot of Hawks and other birds of prey, and it seems like I see a lot more than when I was a kid.

I know that during the 90's in southern Indiana there were lots of redtails and peregrines released and specifically downtown Evansville to keep the pigeons under control. They have thrived since then.

I knew something "had happened" to cause the increase in my own sightings. I figured it was the result of federal protections allowing the various bird populationsto thrive or something. And it still could be that partially.

Yes! I see a lot between Greenwood and Brown County.

How are you still able to type?
Looks like you got hit pretty hard.

Q: Do you know what one falcon said to the other falcon as they watched a duck?


A: "I'd hit it".
