Description

Previous game camera trigger of a goshawk 30 minutes before, bookended by marten triggers. Then some drama! A goshawk appears from the left, lands briefly, and then lifts off again to meet a second goshawk in a brief tussle in the air. The birds are within view of the camera over the course of 35 seconds, with one eventually flying off with the other remaining on the ground, slightly off-camera to the lower right. Exciting observation! @caiwatha
