Northern Goshawk Banded

I hear Joe say over the radio... "The season is complete". I'm not really sure what he means and then I hear "Female Northern Goshawk".... are you kidding me?... he wasn't. A big congratulations to Joe for getting this bird today. This is the largest accipiter in North America. What a thrill! It weighed over 1 kg (the size of a hefty Red-tailed Hawk). You can see the light supercilium (line above the eye), thick dark breast streaking, broad wings and wavy tail bars that are good ID points for Goshawks. Good birds to you all. Jeff
