Sparrow hawk performing open heart surgery on a live crow

WARNING : Not for the faint hearted.
Filmed at Strathpeffer on Monday 16th March 2015, a very graphic video of a sparrow hawk overpowering a crow, then eating it alive.

The two most vulnerable times in your waking hours is pooping and eating. That's why most prey can poop on the run, and most prediters are stationary. The same actually applies to birds. If you notice owls drop pellets while smaller less omnivorous birds sh*t when they fly. Even ducks don't sh*t in flight.
