Bird Survives Vicious Hawk Attack

Amazing capture of a poor bird which was attacked viciously by a hawk. It didn’t die at first but somehow it was still able to walk and it probably wouldn’t live long with its brutal injury on its neck.
10 more pics of the vicious hawk attack on the bird after the jump.

Bird necks are really small compared to the neck with the feathers, so that bird probably is going to live.
Bird skulls are like 1/5 the size of what we see.

at the most, i bet it’s got just 20 minutes to live .. or maybe the hawk comes back

OH NOES NATURE IS SO CRUEL. THAT POOR BIRD. I WISH THE OTHER BIRD DIES. HURR DURR.

My friend and I were looking at the pictures, and she noticed that the bird in the last two panels has different colored tail feathers from the one being attacked. This thing is probably photoshopped, but then again, I’m trying not to think too hard about it. Ew.

Wow a red neck seagull!!

That is absolutely disgusting. I would have put that bird out of its misery instead of taking photos of it. Its neck will get infected and its just disgusting. Cheers for posting that.

2nd hawk scared away 1st hawk. 2nd hawk finished the job. no seagull

Great photos ! Yes, Nature is cruel. It’s not the photographer’s job to control nature. But, to tell the story with photos. Hawks don’t eat feathers and will pluck their victims before eating them. That’s probably what happened to the bird’s neck. Maybe it would have survived, Maybe not. It’s probably good that a 2nd hawk finished him off.

thats happen to my bird

The hawk on the bird is actually a peregrine falcon, recently delisted as an endangered species. A success story. The other bird is some kind of large hawk, though I’m not sure what kind (possibly a red-tailed hawk or similar). I’d guess the bigger hawk bumped the peregrine off its kill (likely in hopes of stealing it) or possibly was driving the peregrine out of the hawk’s territory. The injured bird, if it couldn’t fly, likely got picked off later by the falcon or the hawk.
That’s nature, folks. Hawks and falcons can’t live off tofu.

defintly a shoop i can se the pixels

Takara8tt: it’s not a different bird. what your friend believes are differently coloured tail feathers are actually the tips of the birds wings, not the tail

the reason the falcon did not finish it off is because the photographer interfered and scared off the falcon.
anyway, it’s george bush’s fault. Global warming has killed off all of the falcon’s natural food source, so it turns to eating other birds.
but not to worry, the ObamaNation will reverse this nasty trend.
