That's rough, but how nature rolls.

Excellent Ron, seen so may times with the naked eye yet still never with my camera to hand! Thanks for the upload, Si.

[@rainbowtrout]

Is there sound in the vid?

[@daniellehner1383]

Unfortunately for the Dove. Great capture! That's how nature works.

[@StoilDIvanov]

Great documentary

[@wendyrowland7787]

I hate to hear the cries of the victim, this poor dove is being plucked alive. Such is nature.

И остались от голубя лишь перья да косточки.

The hawk destroyed both wings before attacking the neck.

[@doit4thefun803]

Why didn’t you save the dove? Such a sock person just to watch...

[@harounbraik868]

Because the hawk must eat too

[@tonykennedy2481]

Sicko

[@hasany81]

This is cannibalism

[@magentamonster]

So you think humans who eat pork, beef and lamb are also cannibals then?

[@magentamonster]

Doves are actually some of the more basal birds, they are not passereans. Raptors are telluravians.

[@magentamonster]

Often Eurasian sparrowhawks eat songbirds, that is closer to cannibalism then eating pigeons.
