Overhead predator got my bucky!

[TexasTurkeyMama]

Today we found a duck hen ambushed under a tall oak tree, between the trunk and the wire of a chicken tractor. She was on her breast. The predator plucked the back and scraped the flesh clean from the bones. Head and neck were intact.

My poor little bucky, and the chickens closed in the tractor who spent the day next to a carcass must have been frightened!

I am so sorry to hear about your poor duck.

That's awful, my neighbors were just gushing about seeing a Bald Eagle in the neighborhood, I'm in a suburb of Milwaukee, I'm freaking out, I hope it doesn't target my girls.

Thank you for your empathy.

So sorry for your loss, it's hard.
