A brief struggle while the falcon tries to finish off the goose.
Detalles de la observación
Repeatedly dove at, struck and killed a goose. Based on the size, the prey item was either a Lesser Canada or Cackling Goose. I watched the falcon take at least 8 or 9 passes low over the flock (which did not flush) before it finally struck and mortally wounded one. Even after it had done so, it hit another (which I believe survived). I left before the kill was finalized...as the falcon seemed aware of my presence.
