Observation details
Observed this fledgling hawk (photo 1) on a nest in mature forest. Less than 20 yards away observed an adult northern goshawk (photo 2) acting agitated, flying to several nearby perches and voicing a loud repetitive call. About 1/2 mile down the road noticed another (or possibly the same) adult goshawk perching on a tall dead tree in a cut-over patch, which flew and was mobbed by blackbirds. Don't know enough about the appearance of fledgling goshawks to know if this was one, but the behavior of the nearby adult indicated as much.
