Beautiful capture! Many of the caracara hunt on the ground walking (crested caracara)...does this beauty do the same?

Thank you so much!! We happened to see this Caracara swooping down and grabbing \"stuff\" out of the water. However, this bird does get a lot of it's food while walking on the ground, like others of it's specie! It both scavenges and hunts by wing! It is an opportunist! 😉

Beautiful capture. I hadn't heard of a yellow caracara before. We have a mated pair in the neighborhood next to us. I see them occasionally in the trees or in people's yards, but they are quite shy.
