This pose is often taken up when the bird has found something to eat (grub etc) and it opens and spreads it wings a few times before taking the prey. I have seen them do it without the final outcome being eating but this is the time I have found that they do it regularly.<br /><br />Cheers<br />Jem<br />www.birdsofsaudiarabia.comJem Babbingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05268114140418666748noreply@blogger.com
