Very nice shot! Handsome bird.
Between the two recent shots, I prefer the bird to the bug, but that is because 
I generally prefer birds to bugs. Both the bird “portrait” and the bug are 
nicely framed, good look at the eyes, etc. The action shots of the falcon 
digging in to its meal are nicely graphic!

Not at first and often not for quite some time, which is where the misfortune 
comes in.  As raptors don't like vegetables but still need the nutrition that 
vegetarians and omnivores obtain from them, they have to eat meat as fresh as 
possible.  Preferably still living.
