A tennis raquet is very good.
Many birds (Cormorants, Loons, Grebes, pelicans) swoop down and/or dive to catch fish, but few birds pull fish from the water like an eagle. The Osprey is capable of swooping down & catching fish like an eagle.
Owls will swoop down and grab mice, rabbits, and small dogs!
If someone was stuck in an earthquake and wanted to get out I would swoop down and grab them.
I watched the eagle swoop down and snatch the rabbit from the field.
That is the correct spelling of "swoop" (to fly down, or a single combined action).
If you throw seeds at it, it will swoop down and eat them. Once it has ate the seeds, it will no longer run away from you and you can right click it to place it on your head.
Birds may want to fly nearer the ground so it is easier for them to spot food (eg, worms) and so that if they spot any they can quickly swoop down and snatch it.
Eagles do not typically swoop down to get worms as they primarily feed on larger prey such as fish, mammals, and other birds. Their hunting behavior usually involves spotting prey from a high vantage point and then diving down to catch it with their talons. Worms are not a common part of an eagle's diet due to their small size and the eagle's preference for larger, more substantial meals.
swoop down on fish when they jump for air.
By swallowing the fishes head first the bird is actually making it easier to swallow. If it were to go down tail first the scales on the fish would cut and dig in the birds throat and possibly choke the bird to death.
He swooped down from the sky and picked her up.
Most eagles hunt in a way most other birds do. They glide through the air and look for food. As soon as they have spotted their target, they swoop down and sweep the prey off its feet and takes the prey to its nest.
