CSU FalconCam Project ~Izzi came in with a Superb Parrot Female ~4:59 pm 2020/12/23
Izzi is a juvenile Peregrine falcon! It is not certain that he hunted himself. It is most likely a handover from one of the parents!
EDIT: It was not a juvenile parrot! It was a Superb Parrot female
Large, elegant green parrot with long pointed tail, found in inland New South Wales region. Male has bright yellow face with red throat band. Female and young bird almost entirely green. Feeds on ground, including roadsides. Much larger than Red-rumped Parrot and paler with a much narrower tail than Australian King-Parrot. Calls are a repeated wavering chatter.
I’m not sure, if he was dead. I’m a bit unhappy.
Later, Diamond arrived on the Nestbox, Izzy got completely hysterical again. He grabbed Diamond’s prey ! she fled in a great hurry.
