Goshawk doubles

18 April - P.M. Pioneer Trails RV Park (RVP) which is just outside of city limits. 1 male NG perched- circling and flapping overhead was a female NG. The female had loose, buoyant wing beats and was also thin and lanky.

22 April 10 A.M. RVP - 1 male Goshawk. The hawk had no terminal band. Insights- there are 2 male NG and at least 1 female NG hunting in this area. The other male NG had a thick, white terminal band with an asymmetrical V- notched tail. ALSO- 12 P.M. 1 female NG- soaring high over the RV park. This NG is unusual because of loose, buoyant , deep wing beats - again a male NG hunting over the tall tree tops.

26 April A.M. -Skyline Marina- Merlin and Goshawks. 1 Merlin circling over the tennis courts. 10 minutes later a NG circling very high. A few minutes later 1 female NG circling with 3 gulls. This female had a somewhat unusual structure. Even though it was about 7 miles away from the unusual female NG I observed on April 22 it was probable the the same hawk.
