There were lots of eagles but during the 2-1/2 hours we waited with hundreds of other humans the big raptors took no interest in the chicken offerings and sat in the trees, with the occasional sortie for which we were grateful. I did manage to get some decent shots. There was a Coyote that wandered into the field and at one point was surrounded by crows. Perhaps the crows were looking to remove parasitic insects from the Coyote. I've never seen this kind of risky behaviour before although I have seen Black-billed Magpies ride the backs of Mountain Goats in the Rocky Mountains. The Brown-headed Cowbird is well known with its relationship with cows.
