Birds of prey fighting for an Ostrich Egg
Because of bird's great eyesight and the female's ability to simply fly away when she is not interested in a mate, many of them have complex mating rituals. Here is a video of the blue footed boobie.
Herons and other Ciconiiformes are very effective hunters. They use their harpoon like beak to spear animals. Usually fish but they will eat anything that will fit in their mouth. Here is a video of a heron waiting and watching gophers peak their heads out of their holes.
The golden eagle is one of the worlds toughest birds. A golden eagle can hunt and kill wolves and many other strong animals. Golden eagles can be found all over the world. The Mongolian people train golden eagles to hunt for them. Here is a video of a father and son taking their golden eagle fox hunting.Â
Golden eagles can even hunt large goats by dragging them off cliffs. Once the goats land and die the eagle can scoop them up and take them off to eat. Here is a video of eagles hunting mountain goats.
