Ever wonder why banders wear hard hats when banding peregrine falcon chicks? Well, my friend Carrol Henderson got some photos last week during banding to answer the question.
One would expect the caption, "Get your hands off my chicks, you damned dirty ape!"
Speaking of nesting raptors, if you are in search of a blood-boiling moment, though, check out this report of how the USDA took care of the problem of an aggressive pair of nesting red-shouldered hawks and their two chicks. One word: shotgun.
