An immature RT Hawk caught a Mourning Dove at the feeders late afternoon yes=
terday. It was determined to stuff every last bit in before it flew off heav=
ily to digest overnight. This video shows how full the crop is and, at the e=
nd, the sinuous neck movement that is used to move food from crop to stomach=
 for digestion (so I am told). I never noticed this behaviour before. Shown i=
n this short video (warning its gory) https://youtu.be/C_HKWbB3m0k

A brave Downy Woodpecker, which you can hear, was at a feeder above during t=
his whole episode.=20
