Some species of birds take the eggs or babies of other species. The parents of those species will guard their nest and try to chase away the predator birds. In the US, Red-tail Hawks will be chased by crows; crows will be chased by Grackles; Grackles will be chased by sparrows; House Wrens and Blue Jays will be chased by every bird in its neighborhood; and a Mockingbird will chase anything that gets in sight of its nest. If this bothers you, try setting very cracked egg shells beneath a small tree or other likely place for a nest (washing is not necessary). One reason for "nest predation" is to get calcium for a bird's own eggs. Nest defense and eating meat, however, are general and will persist.
