Siberian Goshawk...short wings, long tail...they are forest hunters. In nobility times goshawks were considered "The Cook's Hawk" because they can take fur or feather. Hawks will often fly ground quarry (dirt hawking) vs. falcons who stoop on birds flying. Goshawks by nature are VERY MEAN!!! She has attacked me when she has missed a number of times in a row out in the field. The only way to keep their heads on straight is to hunt them as much as possible and let them take out that aggression on game. This is my 1st imprint (raising a bird imprinted to me) vs. a trapped bird.
Making the mistake of opening her box without holding tight to the leash...Yes, that's ALL my blood from my face!!!
