1 Male Goshawk: the bird was flapping (as a Goshawk flaps), circling and
drifting. This area is a hot spot to observe Goshawks in flight. Northern
Goshawks are coming off the north side of Mt. Erie and are hunting all of the city
limits of Anacortes; from Washington Park to the downtown marina. The same
Goshawks or other Goshawks are coming from the southeastern area of Mt. Erie,
and dropping over Scimitar Ridge, and then dropping over the Gibralter Rd. -
Rt. 20 ridge. There is a world of difference between a Cooper's Hawk and a
Goshawk (in flight). In fact, the best way to state it is: During non-migratory
conditions there is no comparison between the 2 species, none what so ever;
there is nothing to compare! Nelson Briefer _ebriefer at aol.com_
