Learn more about Red Goshawk on wiki, quote:
"The red goshawk (Erythrotriorchis radiatus) is probably the rarest Australian bird of prey. It is found mainly in the savanna woodlands of northern Australia, particularly near watercourses. It takes a broad range of live prey, mostly birds."

A bird we would never have seen if we did not have our birdguide to guide us. It was tricky to shot as the easiest angle only shoved the birds behind. ☺
