The following is a digest of Sightings Reported on Birdpedia for the period
Monday, November 30, 2020 to Sunday, December 6, 2020:
Area: SA
Date: Wednesday, December 2, 2020
Location: Adelaide Botanic Garden
Brown Goshawk (Accipiter fasciatus) (1) One or two yellow-tailed black
cockatoos (YTBC) had been flying over high up all morning. Suddenly a YTBC flew
at tree-top level with a brown goshawk in hot pursuit, very close and very
aggressive, making a loud racket, both of them. They disappeared behind a tree
... and silence fell. Heart in mouth I waited in trepidation.After a few
minutes the YTBC flew out of the tree, so thankfully it was not turned into
goshawk lunch.
Brown goshawks are sometimes seen in the garden and I have been told they nest
there. I have also seen one in the grounds of St Peters College nearby.
