Major Badger 2 Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 Saw this the other day on the tube...........couldn't believe it!! Posted here in this section because.......... I never look at the falconry section, (more into shooting and trapping) perhaps this is quite common?!! Certainly shuts up the maggie! Quote Link to post

hollands hope 1,024 Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 (edited) Smart fecker, if you watch the clip a few times i get the impression that it actually drowns the magpie on purpose! but it could be coincidence,however good clip Edited May 7, 2009 by hollands hope Quote Link to post

aaronpigeonplucker 32 Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 i think the hawk might have done it buy acsident to be honest. the magpie (being about the same size as a sparrow hawk) flapped its way over there and they landed in the pond. Quote Link to post
moley 115 Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 i think the hawk might have done it buy acsident to be honest. the magpie (being about the same size as a sparrow hawk) flapped its way over there and they landed in the pond. me and you must have bin watching different video,s , it was the hawk flapping its way to the water dragging the maggie with it , just makes you wonder if the hawk knew what it was doing , good clip Quote Link to post
