I was walking around photogprahjng bugs and beetles, when I heard an unfamiliar bird. I grabbed my phone and started recording it in a bird app, it identified it as a Northern Goshawk, and said it was rare for the area. I was so excited to see if that was actually what it was, so I sat and waited around. Well, it sort of paid off, it made a brief appearance and landed in some trees in the distance. I managed to get a few shots of one of them and confirmed it to be the Goshawk. A lifer for me!
