In front of passers-by

[@shermankaspar1818]

i wish a few red tailed hawks would move into my neighborhood, all the pigeons they can eat. they are everywhere

[@Armmani2000]

I know eh, crapping all over the balcony, we do have a few of these hawks around, I am pretty sure you have them too just have to keep and eye and you will see them from time to time, I yet have to see one hunt a pigeon, fingers crossed.

Great job on this, and fantastic camera work!

Hello! would it be possible to use a clip from you video in a short documentary I'm making about pigeons? Thank you.

[@eldev4432]

I wish we had this red tailed hawk in my town. We have an infestation of pigeons in my town! Poop everywhere especially on cars whether parked on the street or driveway. Its becoming a nightmare

[@omargonzales3]

Where do you live

[@Liger._King]

Sometimes I wish I had a pet hawk to throw at birds that every now and then poop on my car. I hate when birds do that nonsense.

Absolutely incredible animals. I know a red tailed hawk. Quite a territorial one, I had put her down on her perch and when I had tied her down and was taking my hand away, she footed my gloves hand. You can really feel the power in them when that happens and it gave me huge respect for these wonderful birds. Though I will say: Don’t get footed by a golden eagle or any bird of that power or you’ll get the big oof.

[@johnny-k8933]

Eagle is not that aggressive on the pigeons but I hate the red tail Hawk

Great, and well captured!

Squab! Makes a great pasta sauce. And I'm only half guinea.

[@obviousness8113]

1:01 So, is it safe to say the hawk CHASED the pigeon and DEPOSITED it in it's gullet?

Wow, beautiful!

I wonder which bird is smarter. I suspect it is the pigeon.

[@jackspencer5561]

Nonononononono no

[@MisfitsFiendClub138]

Pigeons are incredibly smart and resilient. In real nature they would nest on rock cliff sides. In cities buildings represent cliffs to them, bonus for them that humans have wiped out they're predators by taking out all the trees that would be home for various hawks, falcons, eagles and owls. Last but not least humans litter food scraps all over the place which is like putting out a daily buffet for the little buggers. Pigeons adapted to a drastically changed environment which makes them incredibly smarter than a lot of other birds

[@JohnDoe-qt7om]

I recently saw feathers falling continiously from a tree. When I looked up. Low and behold. 😭

[@Systematicsphere]

Lo

[@ultimatedijo7058]

Awesome clip n music

[@davidmcmichael8843]

I’ve seen this same scenario, except the hawk and pigeon were on the ground.

[@Liger._King]

That's even better. It provides a better close-up view.

I thought those little wires atop the buildings kept birds off of it supposedly??? Or am i trippn

[@zacallen2520]

They normally put them on the edges so birds can’t hang their ass off the ledge and shit on you as you walk by. Which they will! 😂

This is really upsetting to watch.

[@spicymilktea]

Blake lol no. i have two pet pigeons 😂 in fact its like if u had a dog and u watched it get eaten by a bear

[@hhds113]

Why did you even come on this video? You saw the title. What did you expect? And its called nature. Deal with it.

[@ultimatedijo7058]

That's life .

[@hhds113]

@@CaSama Understand this is called nature. If you love birds as you say you are, you better accept that the Hawk needs to eat to survive. If you have a problem with that then don't watch videos like this or any nature show. Nature is more cruel then you think. Plus Pigeons are considered as pests.

[@hhds113]

@@CaSama Again, pigeons are considered pests and will be dealt as such. And you think I don't love nature? I never put words in anyone's mouth. And seems to me you're butt hurt because my opinions hurt your feelings. Too bad. Nature is cruel so is this world. You best not to leave your safe space then if you don't want your feelings to be hurt.
