Food Habits of American Kestrels in the Southern High Plains of Texas

Nest Distribution of Four Priority Raptor Species in Colorado

Bald Eagles (BAEA) demonstrated a moderate divergence between used and available locations for cottonwood land cover and riparian-riverine land cover ( Fig. S2.5 (510_rapt-55-04-14_s02.pdf)), consistent with covariate selection results for this species.

Engineers create perching bird-like robot

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/12/211201145322.htm?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email

Bird-inspired dynamic grasping and perching in arboreal environments

https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/scirobotics.abj7562


(C) Inspired by peregrine falcons, we demonstrate that SNAG can also grasp a dynamic prey-like object in flight and carry it along (peregrine photo courtesy of George Roderick).
