OR it may have already been dead due to sickness or injury and was just an easy
meal for something.

Yesterday I walked over to the vacant lot we own next door and found a wing of
what apparently was a Red-shouldered Hawk. The bird had clearly been eaten by
something as I also found a small patch of breast or belly feathers near by.
Just thought this was interesting because I don't typically think of that
species being a prey item. As far as I could tell the rest had been eaten. The
shoulder end of the wing had clearly been cleaned off.
