red-tailed hawks are remarkable hunters that have evolved many specialized adaptations to help them survive in the wild. Their ability to hover in place and stay focused on prey in gusty winds is just one of the many impressive skills they possess.

Amazing how the hawk can ignore the blaring drone getting in the way of its search for food in order to survive. Way to Be!

nature gave him unique wings. And here the matter is not only in the wings, the tail plays an important role. He is for the hawk and the steering wheel and brake and gearbox. Indeed, in the forest at high speed you can become a cutlet on the very first trunk.

A bald eagle in California was spotted bringing a baby red-tailed hawk back to her nest, where her eaglet was waiting. While many assumed the baby hawk would be lunch for the hungry eaglet, it was instead tended to by the eagle as if it was its own.

A man glances into his backyard and spots something odd in the grass — a bird that doesn’t look right. He cautiously approaches and realizes it’s a majestic red-tailed hawk… but the bird can’t lift its head. As he gets closer, the shocking reason becomes clear: the hawk’s own talon was hooked through its eyebrow, yanking its head down to its feet. Heart pounding, the man gently frees the talon. The hawk immediately collapses backward, spread-eagle in total shock. Moments later it rights itself, staring in stunned awe. The man turns to grab some water — and just like that, the hawk launches into the sky, wings strong again, as if thanking its unlikely savior. Nature never ceases to amaze. ❤️ 🦅

That’s the spider tailed horned viper. It uses aggressive mimicry, its tail looks and moves like a spider to lure birds in. To the right prey, it basically signals "easy spider meal".

🌅 A beautiful sunrise over the Atlantic here in Virginia Beach — but #HurricaneErin, eventually just offshore, is already making its presence felt: •🌊 10-foot waves rolling in •💨 Winds sustained in the 30s, gusting to 50 mph •🚩 Red flags flying — swim warnings in place ⚠️ The rip current risk is extreme. Beach patrol asks that you don’t go in past your knees. Ignoring that advice not only endangers you — it forces lifeguards to put their lives at risk for a rescue. This is only the beginning as Erin lingers nearby. Stay alert, stay safe, and keep it with The Weather Channel for the latest. #VAwx #HurricaneErin #VirginiaBeach

"but Dad, how did you isolate the linear accelerometers from the submarine's angular motion?" "well son, the specifics are classified. but check out the head stabilization the American Kestrel uses to isolates their eyes from their motion in flight to stay focused on prey."

A truly heartbreaking and painful moment. So sad for the helpless rabbit. 💔🐇 A male cobra launched a sudden attack on a sleeping rabbit in the jungle, seizing it before it had any chance to escape. Helpless and trapped, the rabbit struggled as the cobra repeatedly struck at its head, determined to overpower its prey.🪱🪱⚒️🐇🐇

The barreleye fish (Macropinna microstoma) lives in the Pacific twilight zone, where it hovers motionless beneath siphonophores to steal their prey. Its skul is a transparent, fluid-filled dome - pressure-equalised with the ocean- through which its real eyes, glowing green, gaze upward. When something passes above, the eyes rotate forward inside the head, and the fish strikes. The dark spots on its face that look like eyes are not eyes at all. They are nostrils.
