re: [cobirds] Goshawk - Jeffco - Golden

Congratulations...an excellent shot.  When I had one at my feeder last year, I had the frontal view for 30 seconds, so photoed oblique shots from the right only.  More defined transverse lines on mine.  The striking thing (besides the breast) is how barrel chested the bird is, tapering down from that.

Birders,

A few minutes ago there was a Goshawk in my backyard at 314 DeFrance Ct.  I don't know which direction it went as it took off when I was going upstairs to try and get a better angle.
