Eagles Adopt Red Tailed Hawk Chick
I guess when an Eagle is broody, any mouth to feed will do.

Thats pretty cool. Definitely gives a new meaning to "red headed step child" doesn't it.

That is just way too cool. Nature! A little surprised since they are both predatory birds and probably compete for the same food source.

My understanding is that the red tail IS the food source...

Yeah, it was taken to feed their chicks, but ended up feeding the begging baby.

Very nice. Some things are very cool. Maybe the hawk will teach them how to catch rodents or the hawk will catch them and feed his family Wink

A second video said they may eat him, if not he may think he's an eagle and try to hang with other eagles resulting in a bad outcome.
