What eats the bird Clark's Nutcracker?

Answer 1

Since it's slightly larger than a blue jay, basically any medium/large predator that can catch it will eat it if the opportunity presents itself : cooper's hawk, northern goshawk, ferruginous hawk, red-tailed hawk, swainson's hawk, rough legged hawk, prairie falcon, peregrine falcon, great-horned owl would have no problem going after a bird that size tough falcons and accipiters (coopers/goshawk) are more likely to go after avian prey. Besides avian predators there are many mammals which would also go for if they can catch it: fisher, mink, martens and other weasels, fox, bobcat/ lynx / house/feral cats... Basically if a predator can catch it it will, however some are more likely than others.

Answer 2

Well, a hawk, kite, or falcon might eat a nutcracker. They are not that small of a bird, so raptors would probably choose something smaller and easier to catch and kill. But if a rapor was hungry enough and the oppportunity to catch a nutcracker came up I am sure they would eat one.
