The Mexican Eagle - Crested Caracara
The Crested Caracara is a fantastic bird! In North America it is found mostly in Mexico, Texas and a small part of Florida near where I live. Even though it is called the "Mexican Eagle", it is more similar to a Black Vulture. These birds do not migrate. They are not that common around here, but I see one about once a month. This video was taken at a place called "Palmer Lake", which is about 2 miles east of where The Celery Fields is in Sarasota, Florida.

I am an award winning filmmaker. Many of my short films have been shown in film festivals all over the Untied States. Several of my bird videos have been used by the Natioanl Audubon Society and seen on TV shows in the United States and Canada.
I went to California State University, Northridge and majored in TV and film production. I grew up in Hollywood, California and made super8 films with Frank Darabont who wrote and directed "The Shawshank Redemption" and created "The Walking Dead" for TV. Also, working on the super8 movies was my friend Greg Melton who is the Production Designer on "Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.".
Thanks for watching!
