    I live in Arizona and haven't seen any rattlesnakes this year. Suddenly I realized that's probably due to the large family of red-tailed hawks living in a big tree by the house!

    What the hawk is actually doing is confusing the snake by spreading its wings into a parabolic dish shape. The snake senses the heat of the hawk, but in this parabola, the ground heat and the birds body heat surround the snake's heat sensors on the snake's nose, confusing it. The hawk's legs and feet are all tendons, no muscles with warm blood. So when the hawk reaches for the snakes head, the snake doesn't sense the temperature change coming for its head.
    The hawk isn't stupid.

    A hit and a miss, Tony!
    The rattler's attempted strike was covered by the hawk's wings. The hawk distracted and mislead the snake with its' impressive wingspan. The snake struck out at what it sensed as a moving target, allowing the hawk to grasp the snake's head-its' "weapon"-with powerful talons, snap the neck, and then settle in for a nice meal.

    What a beautiful raptor...indeed,among them the one that i do not like is the vulture...Owls,Hawks and Eagles are among the ones I like best.
