Grey Goshawk-a welcome visitor (Accipiter novaehollandiae)

Had a fleeting glimpse of this Grey Goshawk on our place last Wednesday,but hit the jackpot on Thursday when a Dollarbird chased it all over the place until it landed in a tree at our front gate-another new bird for our new home and the first time that we have had one perched (photographically)

Great one to have on the property Hans and Judy , a few more visitors of this ilk would be very nice . Did you have to dash indoors for the camera ?

You're getting some impressive property list now, aren't you H&J!! Another fine bird to add to the list.

A super picture to get of this magnificent raptor.

Very well done Hans.
