Original Note:
This Red-Legged Seriema is not playing, but hunting. They pitch their prey at the ground to kill & break up bones, making them easier to swallow. Note how the bird finds a hard surface to throw against, and secondly flees upon the second bounce. There is a fear response. https://www.woburnsafari.co.uk/discover-your-safari/meet-the-animals/red-legged-seriema/ https://peregrinefund.org/explore-raptors-species/seriema/red-legged-seriema
