    They successfully raised two youngsters this year. I have not seen one of the four birds for days now. The youngsters are already on their own.

    Lilienthal

    The 2nd fledgling. Most of the time calling/begging for food. The older one is already difficult to spot/hear. Very shy youngsters. No comparison to https://www.birdforum.net/gallery/fascination.665783/ The goshawk youngster (1 of 3) from 2021 and me, we were almost close friends. 🥰

  9. Northern Goshawk

    Northern Goshawk

    Local female Goshawk watching me as I checked her nest last Summer (under licence). She never alarm called or made a fuss which is unusual for this species. The nest itself was eye level to a footpath just metres away so her silence helped in not drawing attention to her three chicks which all...

    Saw this chap when I was already on my way home. Plenty of time to take the camera out of my backpack and for a few shots. Of course did I refill its drinking bowl.

  22. Northern goshawk

    Northern goshawk

    I took a power nap in the shadow of an oak when it suddenly became very noisy. Local fieldfares chased and attacked this goshawk. Good for me because it was not very difficult, to approach the goshawk in the oak, with all these very angry and aggressive fieldfares around. After a while did it...
  23. Goshawk

    Goshawk

    One of a pair which inhabits our local cemetery. They usually spot you long before you've spotted them and glide noiselessly away between the trees; this one stayed put for a minute or so and kept bobbing her head above the small branch to see if I was still there. Kind of reminded me of my...
