Earlier this week our son Sam walked from Shepherd's Lookout to Uriarra
Crossing adding 3 new species to his young but growing life list. About 1km from the lookout, he interrupted 2 raptors apparently having an altercation(??) It was over the lip of a hill on the ground so the photos leave something to be desired. Here's a close crop. If those with an interest in raptors could please take a moment to look here at the rest of his pictures and help with id & behaviour. He suspects (eyecolour) Brown Goshawk - we have regular visits in and over our garden by Collared Sparrowhawks and these birds were considerably bigger. One seems to be an adult but the other has a browner more mottled look. Thanks . Bron King (for Sam) |
