The name goshawk comes from the Old English word for “goose hawk,” a reference to this raptor’s habit of preying on birds. Falconers have trained goshawks for more than 2,000 years; the birds were once called “cook’s hawk” for their success at snaring meat for the pot. | Alaska Raptor Center | Facebook

This is my first set of goshawk images after many years of trying and many miles of travelling throughout Europe, and it's ironic I photographed the goshawk so close to home.
