See the different
types of Birds of Prey, a library consisting of individual pictures and a summary of some of the
North American birds of prey, native to the continent or have at one time or another, shown up
as a vagrant.
Birds such as the condor, eagles, falcons, harrier, hawks, osprey, shrikes,
vultures and more.
The members of the Birds of Prey consist of the mighty California Condor,
an endangered species, struggling to survive on a continent, where its habitat is shrinking
and man-made obstructions are the leading causes to its survival. The powerful eagles and the
swift falcons, are once more becoming a frequent sight over our rivers and mountains.
The vultures, lesser thought about birds, the Turkey Vulture, which is expanding its range
into the North. All the small birds and those who mostly hunt at night and remain unseen in
daylight hours, such as the owls. Those birds who live in the canopy of the forests and the
isolated northern regions.
