#Throwback to when I was just stumbling out of the van and saw this... don't be worried, this bumbling ibis actually did get away & i don't even know if there is a record of carunculated caracara taking prey this size but these sassy birds fear nothing!

Whoa! I just got out of bed, and have an appointment in a few minutes, so was killing time online when I ran across this link about a bird that is very rarely seen in Michigan (usually far south, Texas to Florida), and only the 3rd sighting here the photographer captured! (He actually finds and shows this crested caracara at about 2:50.) Very interesting way to kill these few free minutes for me this morning!

"u have to feed me, i'm only little, what d'ya mean i'm bigger than u are, u think i don't see u hiding in that tree over there w/ your foot up for a snooze! this is baby birb abuse" -- very noisy food-begging Yellow-headed Caracara

this "little" dude was hilarious, birb's just as big & capable as the nearby parent but don't tell birb that...

Southern Crested Caracara

Such a lovely bird and spotted right next door to downtown Buenos Aires in Argentina.

Caracaras can be found in many areas around the world, including North America. Guess what the talons are for?

Cara Cara navels are sweeter, though I like regular navels just as much 😊
But ever since my son discovered Cara Cara, he is not so interest in regular ones 🤔
Similarly, he has a strong preference for Honeycrisp apples and complains about any other kind🤔

While Crested Caracara is not the official eagle of Mexico or even an eagle (caracaras are falcons), there used to be a popular legend that this was Mexico's national eagle

i think it's because these birds are so familiar & confident, you encounter them on their road patrols where they sometimes do pick up snakes

this youngster was photo'd on a lawn in Costa Rica

Same #Caracara a few seconds earlier. Also massively zoomed in digitally. Saw this one on the way out to the migrant aid camp two days ago.

Here is a Caracara for you. I almost always see one of these handsome birds when driving Hwy 86 between Ajo and Tucson, but this is the first I've ever been able to photograph. The minute you stop the car, they bolt. Original was shot with a 200mm lens. This is an extreme digital crop.
