Observation details
Flying with a passerine photos distant but good shots carrying a passerine and nibbling while hovering in these prefect migratory conditions. This bird is at least a 1/2 mile away, sunny sky, vegetation with openings and wind, in front of me...... observed at one time only, COHA eating from the front end of the bird in its talons. The third photo shows the aerodynamic position of the prey appears to be RWBL size. Clearly a migratory bird as its direction with the wind north northwest.
