We have a new baby goshawk in the bushland behind us...just appeared in the last few days.
Cute little guy. Still got his fluffy feathers.

				Nice shot.
In a few weeks he'll be eating your cockatoos.
BTW, looks more like a Kestrel.

Only in the farang ghettos.
			 
			
			
				That one looks awfully like a kestrel, and a really nice shot too.
			
			
			
				I stand corrected. I've not been able to get a shot of the bird stationary, only the larger adults in flight and from a distance.
In flight it is very similar to the goshawk...but the eagle eyed (pun intended) amongst you are correct. It is a nankeen kestrel.Well done, you bird spotters!!!
However, I think the cockatoos are safe. They are very much larger.

I Googled it and there are a lot  of different species of goshawk. Which species is this one?
			 
			
			
				I made an error, as my colleagues above were quick to point out.
On further examination, I've correctly identified the bird as a nankeen kestrel. 
My bad. ac_blush

One of the smallest falcons.
			 
			
			
				Yes...
But no less beautiful and majestic in flight.

We have lots of them in Calgary too, but if you drive ten minutes outside the city, there are beautiful hawks.

You're going to get a good case of "ptomaine poisoning" eating that shit....mark my frickin words. 
It's been over 3 years since that crap almost killed me and I still can handle the smell of it....To me, it smells like what I imagine Gambino's boxer shorts smell like....crotch rot, grease and unwashed ass.  :beurk:
			 
			
			
				KFC tasted different(better) when I was a kid.
			
			
			
				Anyone like Popeye's fried chicken? I don't eat fried chicken often, but when I do, I like Korean style the best.
