Red-tailed Hawk attack, use tools, swoop, eat

[seant19851]

I thought they were cool too.... until 1 attacked me. My scalp got a pretty good gash from a nesting one.

wish i could teach them to not go for road kill. i see them all the time smashed on highway i-69 by my home in indiana. we have tons of them here. they are beautiful. also there is a eagle/raptor reserve marsh. they get tons of eagles that get smacked by semi's on the road during migration. broken wings and legs ,can't fly. they rehab them if they can and set them free. but its just sad. i would think after seeing traffic all the time they would not land there they are so intelligent n beautiful

they aren't using "tools", they are just scavenging.

Good Video > Crappy Music I muted ur music and substituted some rock n roll and voila; it was 100 times better. TIP

Red tailed hawks also own the call that you hear in most movies for bald eagles. Eagles have a shitty call!

Those are gulls at the end of the video, not nighthawks. The very last bird at the end is a Red-tailed.

Sweet footage! Love the choice of accompanying music!

[kjkuerth]

JS Bach Toccata and Fugue in d minor

Nope!

It is Tchaichovsky's 1812 overture

[nickringer]

What's that organ music called?

[falcoperegrinus82]

This is the song Dick Cheney plays in his dungeon.

[abola2121]

@falcoperegrinus82 No. Such a beautiful composition would melt his brain!(or cast out his demons) .

at the end those aren't hawks they are birds not of prey pestering the Hawk because obviously they may have a nest somewhere..nice vid though
