I can tell you that I saw a somewhat similar situation involving a Common Raven and an American Robin's nest. The raven was huge and he landed in a spruce where I know there is an active robin's nest and preceded to raid the nest, flying off with parts of the nest and clumps of something else which I'm hoping weren't the chicks. He came back 3 times and each time left with stuff in his beak. The robins were chasing him and scolding him each time but this raven didn't care and he was bigger than my toy poodle! The whole situation made me so angry but I guess it's the circle of life?
