By far one of the DOPEST sheds found. This pic is very telling and shows sometimes the predator underestimates the prey; inevitably paying the ultimate cost. I can imagine seeing this buck stroll about with a rotting carcass hanging until it shed that late winter/early spring. Imagine all the doe loving it missed out on spooking the ladies with a predator puppet adorned its crown. (SRC: Urban Outdoorsman on FB.)
the pacific baza is a slender, medium-sized hawk found in australia, indonesia, papua new guinea, the solomon islands, and east timor. they are the only new guinean raptor with a crest. somewhat unusually for a hawk, this species is omnivorous, and feeds on fruits and vegetation in addition to lizards, birds, and other small prey. females are slightly heavier than males, with more brown coloration on their uppersides, sometimes with more dark barring on their secondary flight feathers. both sexes are primarily gray, brown, and white. this species is largely non-migratory.
