The word "raptor" comes from the Latin word rapere, which means "to seize or take by force." Raptor is a general term used informally to refer to all birds of prey.

Bird enthusiasts occasionally limit their use of the term "raptor" to refer to birds of prey who hunt during the day. This separates them from nocturnal birds of prey, like owls.

Birds of prey are those birds that hunt for food from the air. They have exceptional sight that allows them to spot prey from a great distance. In fact, birds of prey have the keenest eyesight in nature with rapid focus and superior depth perception.

Go....find a nice tree....!

The word "raptor" is derived from the Latin word "rapere," which means "to seize." Raptors are birds of prey that feed on live captured prey or on carrion. Typically, birds of prey have to kill things to make a living!

Crane fly

Dinesh has posted:

The common name “mosquito hawk” is sometimes given to these flies; however the name usually comes with the belief that these clumsy, long-legged insects are predators, perhaps on mosquitoes. Nothing could be further from the truth. Crane flies are among the gentlest of insects. Some are nectar feeders, sipping sweet sugars from plants and possibly helping out a little with pollination in the process. Other species lack mouth parts entirely. Instead, the adults live out their short lives relying on fat reserves built up during their underground larval stage.

Aix (genus) Wood duck

Closely related, both species are classified as perching ducks belonging to the genus Aix and having spectacular plumage and use of similar habitats. In North America, mandarin ducks are primarily found in California, where the birds originally became established in Sonoma County.
