Hi all, A few minutes ago I had to make a stop at work for a few minutes. I passed a dead Wyoming Ground Squirrel on the road. I was going to pick it up a few minutes later on my way home to place it in my yard to feed the magpies and crows. As I passed the spot where the ground squirrel was , it was gone. A few yards up the road off in the grass was an adult Golden Eagle that apparently had picked up the squirrel for a afternoon snack.
I saw this type of activity two other times in the same general area. I guess even the top avain predators will take a free meal when available.
