Goshawks

28 March 2008 8:40 AM. RVP
While observing a Cooper's Hawk - an accipiter gave 3 flaps and landed on a telephone pole; overhead at elevation of about 200 feet was a female NG, the perched accipiter flew and gained altitude to be with the female NG. Both birds (NG) flew away together. Male and female NG.

Also at 11:30 AM. RVP
1 mature female Goshawk; hunting in the RVP. EOB- 150 feet, dipping to ground level. The bird was flapping (as a NG flaps) and circling and drifting.
