It was sort of odd because, I would not be surprised to see an owl, eagle, hawk, falcon, or osprey eating another bird. But this bird is fairly small, and sort of looks somewhat like a jay. I've seen magpies, crows, and ravens eat baby bids before, but this bird (the Northern Shrike) appeared to me to be eating a bird nearly the same size(as the shrike was). I thought it was two birds fighting, beak to beak, at first. Then, I assumed it was some courtship ritual. Then, I looked through the 400mm lens and I was like...oh my. Merry Christmas, indeed.
