More Brown Goshawk @ mulligans (film)

[Duncan McCaskill <>]

A lot of birds seem to like to stand on one leg, including hawks. 

Three of these are Collared Sparrowhawks, the one in bottom right corner is a Brown Goshawk. I think standing on one leg is something they like to do when resting in one spot.

Here we see two female 'teenagers' hanging about.  One is trying to perch with one foot (something I cannot say I've seen a hawk do before) high up in a tree on a windy day- as it tries to maintain its raptor 'dignity' - with difficulty.....,  its sibling has a better idea.

Fimed 20+ metres up in a big tree in Mulligans a few days ago.
