This work describes the observation of a preying upon of Accipiter chilensis by a Buteo ventralis in the Austral Forests of Argentina. The Rufous-tailed Hawk seems not only feeding on small birds but also on birds of prey, according to our observations in Alerces National Park, where this had not been recorded previously.
