22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Falcon RN with dove
We could not see which bird it was but within a few second it took off and it landed a few meters from our vehicle on a dead branch next to the road. The bird was a Red-necked Falcon with its kill – which look like a dove. It sat on the branch for a few minutes feeding on its kill and then took off giving me the opportunity to capture it flying with its kill.
