| Northern Goshawk adult female on her nest Niigata, Japan, My first visit back in May 2012 |
Lucky to find Northern Goshawks nesting again this year although they are in a quiet area and have been nervous of onlookers. I visited briefly just three times over the last 6 weeks. I visited today just for 15 minutes and found the two that had recently fledged.

Well done Russell. Great shots of the "fledglings" in particular!
WOW!
That is truly wonderful!
I can see you had a thrill bein there and take pics!
Bravo!! :)
Wonderful images. This species is really striking.
How great to be able to observe this majestic bird so closely at the nesting site. I just love the expressions of this species.
Cracking shots Russell. I don't think it would be possible to get shots like that of Goshawks over here becuase they have been so persecuted over many years.
Good stuff Russell, I don't see many of these and when i do they're already flying off.........must be great to have them nesting.
