Main foraging areas (75% AKDE) of male Goshawks foraging
exclusively in forest (A), in forest and farmland (B), and in forest and
town (C). Foraging areas of individual birds are indicated by different
colours. The town of Hajnówka is shown in grey. White dots indicate
known active Goshawk nests.
Several male Goshawks breeding deep in Poland's Białowieża Forest 'routinely travelled up to 20 km to hunt feral pigeons in a town' with the authors concluding that 'urban environments shape the foraging behaviour of raptors even within primeval forests' #ornithology 🌍 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Nice views of a possible HGxLBBG in Bristol today. ID comments welcome- is the number of primary tips (5) projecting beyond the tertials of any use when comparing to YLG? #gulls

Apparently patch birding does all come good in the end. 1w Ring-billed Gull this evening and glad some people managed to connect after my rather garbled attempt at putting news out. Blog post to follow #ukbirding
