Hi Brad;

I am definitely not an expert. But, the bird looks good to me as a
Goshawk. Although I only am seeing two images in the photostream (not
five) for some reason. Bulky body, the streaking on chest, belly, and
(under tail coverts, or is that an extension or the feet??), tail looks
good for goshawk... Would like to see this a little closer...

Cheers;

Michael Fleming
