its not my shot dave! i just remembered seeing all over the news and in the papers just back a while, and googled it, wish it was mine!

David P. nice grey goshawk! reminds me of a brown falcon story, similar looking bird to, ..was walking thru an outersuburban park along the river, and heard a hell of a commotion, it was dozens of the common new holland honeyeaters, and they were all going nuts with alarm calls and a community/flock rally. as a brown falcon had just grabbed one of their family/mates, and they were trying to get it back and scare off the falcon with the racket and make the falcon drop the bird, i can only assume. i tell you, Meercats had nothing on this lot!!, as they were all acting not unlike a family of meercats, with the intense stretching and keening to see all atop the highermost branches, the level of concern intelligence and caring shocked me!

oops long story sorry!
