A field observation of common buzzard predating on common toad

We observed common buzzard Buteo buteo (Linnaeus, 1758)on 16th March 2008 in the dusk, skinning the common toads that were injured in the traffic during their spring migration to the breeding site, on the county road from Koprivnica to Đelekovec.The same predation pattern was also observed on the road near the gravel excavation pit Gabajeva Greda. It seems that this pattern is here even more common due to lower frequency of traffic.
