Observation details
Captured, killed, and flew off with a meadow vole. Carried away prey in beak. I have seen Northern Shrike carry avian prey in its feet (as have others), but it appears that shrikes tend to carry mammalian prey in the beak. This little vole did fight back as can be seen in the sequence.
