Imagine being a hawk and 20 million cheese burgers with wings start flying out of a cave.
My fat man senses are tingling
You can see it in Austin Texas
'Murica!
What the fuck are you smoking
Tobias would be in heaven.
Wow imagine the strength and precision it takes not only to grab one bat, but to get a second. Those talons and grip are unreal.
"It' the largest gathering of mammals on the planet"
Tokyo: "Am I a joke to you?"
lmao
My god that footage was incredible
Drone camera i think
oh my god, you think thats REAL?
You should see some of the REAL stuff.

I live in the Dallas area and these hawks are everywhere. It's crazy how often I see them catching other birds in parking lots and over busy streets.
girl you are beautiful.read my name.
Odd, living in Texas to have the BBC treat this as an exotic land with exotic wildlife. This must be how the Australians feel when tourists gawk over the kangaroos.
Red hawks live all over the USA, not just Texas. I’ve seen a lot of them in Utah, and Colorado and some times even in Nevada.
@@trayvonjackson4830 Even more amusing then
I once seen a red hawk in Michigan
@Roger Edgerton I take it that you have no love for Texans? I'm not native to this state, so I can't say much about the average "Texan dolt", but I have become accustomed to the terrain and wildlife and so they seem ordinary due to the familiarity.
Well he does say that it’s the largest gathering of mammals or some shit
I actually witnessed this event driving from Davis, Ca to Sacramento, Ca. early one evening just a few weeks ago. There were at least three red tailed hawks participating in the hunt and I saw one of them successfully catch a bat. It was pretty cool....
They should definitely bring David Tennant in for more documentaries. He has such a lovely voice and his accent is charming as heck.
That slow motion is absolutely outstanding and amazing!
I need this guy to get rid of these annoying Seagulls in our neighbourhood waking everyone one up at 5 o'clock in the morning
2018: Red Tailed Hawks - *"I am flying death!!!"*
2020: Bats - *"He he....no I am flying death!!!"*
Dark 👀
😂😂😂
China ccp scientist: (they actually created COVID) - *”I am biggest lying death!!!”
"It's the largest gathering of mammals, on the planet."
Humans: "Allow us to introduce ourselves."
😆🤣😭
NOOBYCREEPERBRUH what about Coachella?
The tube london
Well .. there may be more humans than bats in the world but in terms of them gathering in a spot, bats set the record
@@Sienn0 I've seen over 2 million protestors gather at one location
You know who the real predator is? The guy who filmed this! If you read this, I just want to say: “you are a BEAST!”
the "guy"? it's 2018. how about person.
"Person" It's 2018. How about homosapien.
Hanns guy?person?i think they used a drone
Aizrhah Napiloy so the homo sapiens, person/ guy operating the drone !
2018...Drones. Are. A. Thing.
You just gotta love how they dive bomb.
Excellent camera work!
That ain’t no hawk! It’s nothin’ but bats!
Bruh didnt expect to see a ref to that herr
Thank you for this clip. I still like to watch the bats come out at night from the Congress street bridge, only 1.5 million bats compared to 15 to 20 million at the Bracken Cave and about 12 million at the Frio Cave. So glad the Bat Con International was able to preserve the land adjacent to the Bracken Cave, to help protect the bats and people.
Any bats in Illinois
Dave Tennant and nature, that's all I need
Hawkman nudges Batman: Hey Bats you see? Hawks are the natural killers of bats!
Batman: So is DDT.
Hawkman: 😨
War Thunder custom air battles in a nutshell.
Hawk: Jet
Bats: Prop planes
That’s David Tennant narrating! I can definitely hear that…I didn’t know he narrated any of these
"Dinosaurs reminding uppity mamals their place in foodchain."

Magpie me

@Hector Diaz nope
Minor winning of Team Dinosaur in mammalian era.
One of my neighbors used to grow a field of sunflowers. It would attract doves for miles. The doves would get so fat they we slow and couldn't fly very far. The Red Tailed Hawks would pick the right out of the air and sit over by my electric pole and chow down leaving piles of feathers. These hawks would get so big you could mistake them for eagles.
I think we found one of Batman's hideouts
Mexican Batman's hideout ;)
It amazes me how they fly around and don’t hit each other
echolocation
Actually they do - often if you watch bats in slow motion there's a lot of "Sorry dude" - "Sorry dude..."
Love our red tails, Great Horned Owls. All of the birds of prey we have here on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland.
The camera man needs to look for sasquatch
Most beautiful sunset I’ve ever seen
That's the American Southwest for you.
Lived here my entire 28 years on Earth and I still never get tired of it.
i like that guys accent! absolutely amazing btw
It's David Tennant. He's scottish. ;)
I thought it was him. Thank you for confirming it.
Yeah he does a lot of voiceover for BBC.
thanks i thought so
Scottish and British accents are music to my American ears :)
I have lots of red tailed hawks in my backyard. I love watching them
All The Bat's🦇 versus Red-Tailed Hawk
Red-Tailed Hawk is out numbered
Eventually bat's will win
The hawks that are the best hunters will keep coming back through the season like was said. The hawks don't have much of any significant impact on the vast number of hawks. There's the nunace you were looking for.
Talonflame vs Zubat horde
This is probably the best camera work, I have seen.
I guess the real badasses can catch one on each talon while holding one in their beaks. Legendary!
Red tail hawk,free tail bats such beautiful names
What a beautiful sky, wow.
Wow Hawks eating @ the Bat-ffet 😂😂😂
Spectacular visuals!
BEAUTIFUL.
Caught 2 bats . Amazing.
Love the soundtrack and narration with this! Have watched it over and over!!

Hail the Cameraman!

This is the closest you can get from T-tax (hawks) eating humans (bats)
Oh god I don’t want to be eaten by TurboTax!
The audio and the editing is also impressive!
Red Tailed Hawks are such gorgeous bird's ❤❤❤❤❤
You know why............cause AM BATMAN🦇!
Absolutely incredible footage! 👍 👍 👍 😊 ☺️
Here in Western NY, . . Red Tail Hawks are common. We also have Ospreys!
I feel satisfied by this guy’s voice and accent
Birds of Prey so cool
This isn't Birds of Prey this is about the Hawk.
StarlingReturns2109 a hawk is a bird of prey
ASMR: The 10th Doctor educates you on strange alien creatures from the planet "Earth"
Incredible.
small rodent creature: developed wings to fly away from predators on land
hawks: welcome to the skies
Ironically bat's are more related to primaries than rodents.
I love classical voice of presenter
insanely awesome footage!
Great video, especially the slow motion.
Bats do more good than any hawk could possibly do
Why would you want to eat a flying mouse?....lol
I Stiil remember that meal, It was great. 5 star rating on yelp for bat feast bowl.

20 million bats eating mosquitoes and bugs. That’s a lot of insects .
Caught bat: Of all the bats,.....
I see Ben affleck scared n hiding behind woods lol 😂
rehman shaik christian bales batman is wayyyyy better
Darkexsitense yup 👍🏻
Ben Ass-leck couldn’t act his way out of an anus...
That is incredible behavior for a buteo. I've never heard of a red tail catching anything on the wing!
I've heard that they do but on rare occasions. Most prefer hunting from a perch and don't even hunt on the wing much.
Buffet!
Red Talented
Wuuuuuuhhh!
Sorry Batman!
Jajajajajaja
The bats didn't come from Mexico to breed, the Bracken cave bats are a predominantly female gathering which live there and go *to* Mexico to breed.
Build a higher wall to keep the Mexican bats out. :¬}
Of course BnZ tactics work best when you have a speed and weight advantage and your prey is in an uptiered agility airframe.
Great video ive seen!
Awesome.
O-oh my...
Love the Scoh'ish Occent!
That one hawk that eats a bat and gets its whole species infected!
Reminds me of Harry Potter trying to catch his Hogwarts letter.
This is so accurate XD
Amazing
Amazing video.
