Northern Goshawk

May 20, 2010


I had the great fortune to come across a Northern Goshawk in the Georgetown area this May. A spectacular and very dangerous hawk that will dive on you, should you happen to walk through it's territory, striking you on the head if it has the chance.

The video to the left was taken as it told me to leave which I did shortly after taking this!

"Click" on the image to the left for a brief video of the Gos "asking" me to leave.

The reason for all the concern shown by the Goshawk can be seen in the middle of the nest image, a little fluff ball staring at me!


Two more short videos of the adult. "Click" on either image to start the video.
