Catmendo Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Mallard "duck soup: that is! The bald eagles are really enjoying incrdible success killing mallards up here at this time! It's the 1st time that I have ever sat and observed eagles successfully hunting live ducks, it's amazing! The 1st item that is required by these eagles is, mallards! As you can clearly see, this is not an issue. The 2nd item to ensure success is to figure out a means in order to have succuss. Once again, these baldy's have it figured out to a TEE! They simply fly very low along a very large drainage that is filled with unwary mallards. When the opportunity presents itself....WHAM they strike with blinding speed and it's all she wrote...."Duck Ala Carte`!!! I'm not sure what this Ruff-legged hawk was thinking, but he sure put the run on the young baldy! This little casual observer wisely decides to stay out of it,LOL!
