  • that is an amazing scene. those hawks are rough on the pigeon population. I

    've watched several of the utube sparrowhawk videos and these little guys have kept a lot of pigeon poop off of the bridges. those little hawks fight like wounded tigers.

  • that was so sad to watch. you see the pigeon open it's mouth, probably screaming from the pain. quite a video. unfortunately 'creation has been subjected to futility..'

  • That has to be in the top ten of "the worst way to die"

  • That's a Goshawk, it could have at least had the decency to kill it first, was pretty gruesome but its nature and we shouldn't really interfere.

  • i have pigeons and i truely hate those motherf*ckers they are indiscriminant hunters.They kill all non-preditory birds includin parots

  • why the hell didn't you save the poor pigeon instead of filming it??

  • I used to feed this guys small fish hawks are awesome

  • GO HAWK KEEP THERE POPULATION DOWN

    

  • @bosnafudboll27 No, it would interrupt nature, would you like someone to take away your food?

  • thats why we hunt this lil mofukker with powercatapults !!!!!

    in 2011 we killed about 25 of em !!!!!

  • What's with these people talking about interfering with nature? Say that when you've got a toothache. See if can last without interfering. Or an infection that requires antibiotics. We have progressed to a point where we are capable (some of us) of having empathy for other beings, I know it's natural, we all do, but is it natural to laugh at it? Is laughter in this case symtomatic of an inability to empathise? People who empathise improve society for everyone. The reverse is not the case.
