"Gimme five falcons for a quarter, you'd say."

What cute little raptors! I was wondering if they'd eat mostly insects, but the wiki says they eat little reptiles, birds, and rodents, or whatever else they can take down.

So similar to something like a loggerhead shrike, neat.

Diet wise, it sounds similar. This guy, being a raptor will kill with the feet, while the shrike's feet aren't built for that.

If you go back a few posts, I shared a shrike catching a coral snake that was pretty impressive. He won a standoff with a kestrel for who would get to eat it.

Imagine a steampunk currency which is just tiny mechanical birbs that automatically fly from hand to hand and into purses and pouches.

Way cooler than scarabs.
