Since the pigeon is very accessible to the falcons we have been calling it "Flying KD". ;D
RaptorGal:
jadoo, you are ok! Now what I want to know is which chick is which in that chick pile fluffling huddle!! Now that is a raptackulous delusion!! :)
BTW, yup, that pigeon still had its head on but Princess pulled the meat off without touching the head that I could see.

I thought that (aeons ago) TPC mentioned how meticulous our falcons were with removing the head of any prey before bringing it to the nest, something about a particular bacteria found in the head and neck of some prey. Was I dreaming this? (Or, worse yet, think it up on my own, and am now trying to involve other people in my delusions???)

I think I recall TPC mentioning this a very long time ago too, jadoo. So, I don't think you're delusional, but if you are, then that makes 2 of us. ;)

...and maybe I'm not delusional...

I know sometimes the feathers are taken off in the nestbox. Those little flufflings can sure stretch their necks!!!
