    Ooh, I didn’t know about that, but that makes sense so many raptors have those bars.

      I don’t know if I’ve posted on it, but I’ve read a few things about how raptors plan their attacks and dazzle camo would really work to their benefit. Combined with the element of surprise, it’s a deadly combo for little critters. I think most of the articles were about hawks, but I’d guess if they’re hunting the same prey on the go, tactics would be similar if they get spotted.
