The closest most of us will get to birds of prey, are sadly in rehabilitation centres. Just like the artificial wild nature reserves available for people to drive through and see these "wild"

At first he had breakfast, then a drink, and then a bath. I think that is a big rock lizard that he caught, but I cannot be sure. How about that? A rock kestrel catching a rock lizard:)) At first, we thought

And he even posed for me for a while, until a crowd arrived. We were driving on a narrow single lane road, and thankfully my wife saw him, as he sat on a tree at the car's passenger side. So, I slammed

On Friday morning I was up at 4AM and got the post up, cleaned the kitchen, and messed around on the computer trying to create a new home page for my browser. It had been a long time since I’d done that

Not every day that you will see something like this. A juvenile African Harrier Hawk (Polyboroides typus) was scratching around for rodent nests on the husks of a high palm tree trunk. I know that they

The call gave them away, as when I heard it, I was out in a flash. The female African Harrier Hawk (Polyboroides typus) was scouting around for a new nesting place. I knew how to find them, as they love

Birds of prey have become scarce, as we are moving closer to winter. Most of the predators have moved higher to the warmer countries up north in the African continent. But we are lucky, as some of the

Although junior can already hunt for his own prey, mom is still around to keep an eye. I got this lovely view of junior coming over and this predator is a Harrier Hawk. (Polyboroides typus). But it is

Time is not on our side, as thus far this week things are going a bit crazy. The sun and clouds were also playing tricks on us, as one moment it was light and the next it was dark. That is what a strong

No small birds like to see this guy around, as there will surely be some killing going on. We have seen one on the farm in the past, lifting a hadeda ibis baby out of a nest and it is not a good memory.

Come and let's watch some Jackal Buzzards doing their thing in the sky. The jackal buzzard (Buteo rufofuscus) is a fairly large African bird of prey. The taxonomy of this species has caused some confusion

Greetings, Fellow Feathered Flying Object Identifiers Of Various Success! Do you suppose that's an eagle? Because I do. There are many birds of prey in our region, and you can detect them often while driving

I happened to see this young juvenile "Cooper's Hawk" land right outside my kitchen window while making chocolate chip cookies this morning. I've had one come and visit the Hemlock tree before

Hello everyone, friends, how are you today, I hope you will continue to be happy today, Best wishes and happy greetings, of course, as we hope for the future, and in this case, we really hope that we can

I really like to watch and photography birds of prey and from time to time I get to see some of them either flying or sitting somewhere. This Buteo was sitting on a conifer near a wide open grassland where

Before I could only get them at a distance far away, but today I got lucky. This Heron got such a fright when he saw the battle that he pooped in flight as he scattered :) As usual it happens in seconds.

This lovely bird in flight is a Prairie Falcon. There are quite a few of them here in my area. They prey largely on mice, which is a bonus because there are quite a few of them also. I see more falcons

This is my entry to the #SMaP competition, round 81, show me a bird you have identified. And the bird I have chosen is a Kestrel, or tornfalk as it is known in Swedish. The bird in the picture is a youngling.

Last weekend I was able to take some pictures of the European Honey-buzzard here at the wetlands of the Inn River, it flew above our head when we were walking down the Damm for flood Protection. We took

In 2019 I found a very nice place where the Marsh Harriers build their nests nearby and I had the luck that I could watch them hunting, bringing in some nesting material and flying up and down the wetland
