I believe that those birds are Magpies. But it is a good commercial.
Hawks, falcons and raptors are great birds.
I wish our leaders were as good hunters and killers as hawks, raptors and falcons. (and excuse my poor bird terminology please).
Yes, those were magpies in that commercial. But back to falcons: I enjoy watching peregrines. They’re the consummate killing machine, and all the other birds know it. I once watched one come from way on high to knock a ring-billed gull out of the sky. It tried to outmaneuver the falcon, but it was pretty much hopeless.
And as for the falcon death, it probably struck a window. It happens all the time, but there’s not a thing we can do about it. I hope the other two chicks survive though.
