I had a Cooper’s hawk do the same with a pigeon. The kids and I stood at the backdoor in awe. It was such a raw display of violence with blood and feathers everywhere.
The only downside was the cleanup after.

A falcon once landed in my backyard with a starling still alive in its claws. We got to watch the whole showdown. It was gruesome. It was violent. It was fucking metal.
Basically Planet Earth in my backyard, 10/10

There is a shockingly large number of feathers in even a small bird.

starlings like to drop their shit in our pool but stop when the hawks/flacons start flying around.
