You might have guessed from the falconer picture yesterday that I have been to the Hawk Conservancy Trust once again. It was pretty wet and we dodged the rain most of the day. Nevertheless we still saw some fantistic birds and fights. I love the Caracara birds. This picture shows a Striated Caracara from the Faulkland Islands. They are pretty comical. In this shot the bird is taking the mickey out of the announcer. Fun!
I had not seen Caracara birds before my first visit to this place. So I had to do some research. They are the only 'pedestrian' falcons - scavenging and ground-running. You can find out more and some links on my previous posting... http://365project.org/netkonnexion/anotherone/2011-05-14
