The 4-Feet-Tall Birds Named Secretary Birds Are So Beautiful And Gorgeous
Hunting and diet: Secretary birds and caracaras are the only two birds of prey that hunt on the ground instead of from the air. Secretary birds' diets consist of small rodents, amphibians, and reptiles. Working in small groups or with a partner, secretary birds hunt from just after dawn through to the evening, resting only during the peak heat of the afternoon. They sometimes capture prey by striking at it with their short, hooked beaks, but more famously, secretary birds use their large feet and sharp claws to stomp it to death.
