When my husbands calves are being born he has to watch out for buzzards coming for the afterbirth and then pecking the newborn calves eyes out. Sometimes the mother cow will try so hard to defend her baby that she will actually stomp it to death under her own feet. Always so sad when that happens.
A well placed shot up into the trees where the buzzards are waiting will send them off for a while.
Yep .... buzzards, hawks, crows etc are just scouting for coyotes as well.
