We have many types of raptors around here, including bald and golden eagles. Have seen them do many strange things. One is, we have had in the past, resident golden eagles stay all winter and prey almost exclusively on wild turkeys. Seems to be pretty easy pickens for them. Turkeys and ofcourse jack rabbits seems to be the norm. Have seen them with many snakes, rabbits, young deer, antelope, and lambs. It's unspoken, but many of the ranchers treat them like the plaque and shoot them. But it doesn't seem to hurt the population around here.
