Could one train birds to be an anti drone defence, perhaps?

Some police forces in the Netherlands were working with anti-drone eagles years ago, though with modern drones I'd be concerned about the eagles.

See Neal Stephenson's latest, Termination Shock. Eagles trained for drone hunting, with 3D-printed claw protections
An excellent book, and exactly what I was thinking of as well.
Birds of prey would probably be better at it and more trainable. I've see way more videos of hawks taking out drones than shore birds.
Maybe hire a falcon will be a service before long
