Falcon vs Raven in Slow Motion | Slow Mo | Earth Unplugged 

Love to see this comment

Haha, I’m also watching this video for raven flight reference right now now

@@Gloria.1108 same! the slow motion flight is so beautiful

Yeah, I'm a 3d artist and found this useful for how to make the form of the wings.

SAME!

I also have a thing for Crows. They are crazy birds, noisy and are fearless when in a group against a hawk.

Same

I was thinking the same thing. The music was a great touch too, it really accentuated the beauty and grace of these birds and what they do.

Rofl dude, top comment

Rigo R.M نتننة

Rigo R.M Remember this Old comment?!?

The can talk like parrots to

Yeah

Are you sick? It's a video of two great flyers in detail.

marsvltor2 Calm down, they obviously mean the video title can be misinterpreted as it does not indicate that the versus is in relation to their features

same

Me too

not a chance ravens are hunted by the peregrine.....I watched as a kid on a farm a falcon hitting crows and pidgeons plucking them out of the sky at speed.

tomtalker2000 I'm no expert, but they seem to be one of the few "perching birds" who can give a run for the raptors' money in terms of size and physical prowess

tomtalker2000 Do you pop up everywhere? I been reading the beginning of your comment on many bird videos.

I try to be as helpful as i can to those that are interested in the subject matter. Otherwise they would have never clicked on the video in the first place...:)

The will give a raptor a run for there money. As i've said before in other videos of these birds having aerial "dog fights" with birds of prey. Most raptors will give them a wide berth knowing full well that they cannot out class them in flight. Ravens are around 27in with a 4-4.5ft wingspan weighing in at around 2pds or so. Where as there smaller Corvid cousins crows say the most common and largest species the American Crow. Are around 18-20in 3ft wingspan weighing in at around 1lbs. So big big difference between the two. Plus ravens beaks are thicker and have a hook at the tip especially made for ripping and tearing into flesh like a raptor has. The may still lack the formidable talons a bird of prey has. But the make up for it ten fold with there beaks. And can VERY easily kill mice, rats, other birds like puffins smaller shorebirds etc...Believe it or not i've actually witnessed an American Crow killing a gray squirrel. Certainly NOT your everyday occurrence. And it took A LOT of effort and about a hour for the crow to fully immobilize plus kill the squirrel. But they can do it and this one did...!!! It was quite a sight to see. Now if it had been a raven it would have been FAR easier. Given there larger size and hooked beaks.

***** they can mimic speech just like parrots

+HungryHyena They are as smart as, possibly smarter than, chimpanzees. It would not surprise me to find they were sapient.

they are not only smartest birds, but probably top 3 smartest animals.

I read somewhere that they experience life just like humans do. And I'm not that surprised.

Nuna Actually the only bird that arguably surpasses the crow in intelligence is the Kea

One is currently the only team undefeated in multiple Super Bowls. The other choked on the same number of Super Bowls

ZhangK71 I am Ravens fan. Go Ravens!

You’re depressed, or at least you were when you posted this comment. I hope you’re feeling better.

that was a falcon the raven is the black one.

aimbot mostly !

Warui Kashu me too. I want to have a Raven

@@Nuhuh130 Let's have them ;^)

Warui Kashu where can we buy one? Lol

@@Nuhuh130 I have no idea :c, but on the bight side they live everywhere so we can hunt them XD

two scoops of raven?

curtsher11 Clever, but not what I had in mind

A popular Westerosi breakfast cereal (I done used BOTH your jokes!).

The sixth sick shiek's sixth sheep's sick?

Bran actually means Raven in Gaelic Irisg

think about this the meat is hitting the raven at 40 too! no different than you catching a wet towel from a car..

@@willieboy8798 Not quite! The meat is moving forward at 40 mph too when thrown, and it will have slowed down only a little by the time the raven catches it.

@@awuma i can see you failed physics!

@@willieboy8798 it's not wrong. The meat was thrown from a moving vehicle at speed, it was noy stationary. The meat was probably doing 20 on it's own

@@ricardolandgrave2532 no shyt! the bird is flying there for i would assume the meat is in motion ....hence the physics mention?????

Im wondering also

there was no Crow in this only a Raven

VSGU TheOPCrown Same shit.

Natty S No it's not

Crows and Ravens are as different as Cheetahs and Leopards

Firebrand No quite i can name more differances with leopards and cheetahs :)

+magda Gettner If it's genuine,....nice name:)

🐦 Birds are gay 🐦

Actually, bran is the word for crow or raven in Celtic languages.

+galaxy I hope English isn't your first language...

Because we eat too much pizza? :-)

Because you didn’t drink red bull.

@@birdyedits4051 funny I got this comment while opening a rockstar energy drink can

Watched a raven invade a nest of three Osprey chicks and proceed to slowly tear them to pieces…………………………………….So absolutely cannot stand them. I mean three helpless chicks they cannot do anything to protect themselves. Just ripped to shreds……………..slowly and meticulously.

Ravens are among the smartest of all birds. They got real character too, very mischievous and great problem solvers.

Firebrand There's a reason why people don't generally like them but they don't despise them either, because we can't help respecting them in a way.

Yeah they've been in a slump ever since Ray Lewis retired but Lamar Jackson is gonna make them awesome again
