While trying to get some bifs, I learned that not only do the raptors catch them in the air, they eat them in flight. Excellent captures Steve! I have not seen raptors eat their prey in the air.

Thanks, Mike! Nor I, when it comes to knowing about raptors eating in flight. I think MIKIs are one of the few that do. When I looked closely at some of the pics I could see bits and pieces of the cicadas drifting away as the bird ate. Very interesting, I thought.
