@exessex3522 3 года назад

Wow! What a piece of filming! I've seen snakes and other birds (hawks, falcons, even gulls) catching flying bats before but seeing hornbills do it was a wow moment for me. Wildlife footage about hornbills often focuses on their unusual habit of incarcerating the nesting female in a hole in a tree with the male then responsible for all the feeding. The adults seem to eat mostly fruit but once the chicks hatch, the male brings in a lot of large insects and other invertebrates, like mantises. I've never seen one deliver a mammal before. Brilliant bit of photography - well done!

The maneuverability of both birds is absolutely incredible. The Hornbills are like VTOL jets when they want to be. Since they don't have those talons and speed that a hawk-eagle has, they just work smarter, not harder. Seems like a smarter way to conserve energy if you don't have to capabilities of the hawk-eagles.

@Hmongboi228 4 месяца назад

It's April the 23rd, 2024 and in the end, "It's all just a numbers game..." The bats flying out of the cave, a bunch of them will be preyed upon, the others will survive these daily assaults and move into their next event that will put them in jeopardy. As too with humans, we experience the same fate. From a child to our teens and finally maturing to an adult, we deal with a "numbers game" throughout our lives whether we realize it or not. From random strokes of luck, to finding the right partner, competing for jobs, competing for resources that are deemed "scarce", financial stability and our health, they all have one thing in common, probability. Some of us will get everything we desire, some of us won't. Life is not fair and it was never meant to be but probability and numbers does indeed play a large role in our existence.. An amazing, beautifully captured clip displaying the hardships of life captured by the BBC that in deep thought, reflects our perils in life.....
