I would go with Brown Goshawk, the clearly rounded tail is visible in the
third photo.
I laughed when I saw some of the suggestions, some included Black-shouldered
Kite and Grey Goshawk, one man was certain it was a Grey Falcon from a quick
glance at the Simpson & Day! Another man was ready to put a 10 dollar wager
down on the bird being a grey Goshawk!!
It looks like these "Aussies living simply" may need to start practising
their identification skills. We will know when those Aussies should stick to
living simply when one of them suggest the first photo is of a pigeon and
the second is of any aeroplane! A bit of fun.
All in all, at least they are giving it a go! Kurtis Lindsay |
