    My experience has been that a smaller bird will attack the bird of prey relentlessly till they’re on their way.

      I was watching some crows chase around an eagle the other day. The pathetic squee noises it made like it’s saying “I toldja I was sorry I ate your babies” has me wondering why we have all fallen for this whole eagles are a symbol of power gobbledegook.

      I saw a hawk and a Robin going at it one day. It fucked me up when the Robin hit the hawk and it started to fall. Didn’t see the aftermath as I was driving but either way. Never expected a hawk to lose against a Robin.
