"The story of a Goshawk, a bird of prey that has advanced into the city Tokyo Japan"
This blog introduces the life of a goshawk, a wild drama that unfolded in front of the caretaker in an urban park from July 2017 to December 2018.
Who is this guy! Can not compete!
■
In the second week of August, I almost never saw all three brothers in the Otaka Forest.
The behavior seems to be different, and each brother seems to go out for a new world separately.
I thought that there were no young birds in the forest of Otaka, but after a while, I came back by chance.
Only one is usually back in the forest.
The brothers and sisters who were close friends also seem to be acting separately.
One day, a young bird was interacting with a small bird over the forest of Otaka.
The young goshawk looks like a second daughter.
The small bird that is interacting with each other in the sky is the Japanese sparrowhawk.
Tsumi may have been patrolling to take control of the forest where the goshawks are disappearing.
A young goshawk appeared there.
A quiet forest, always being targeted by someone.
It is a young goshawk that can easily beat a single crow opponent, but the situation did not let Tsumi opponent do so at all.
At the beginning, the goshawk probably licked it because the opponent was small.
Gracefully and slowly, I approached to get rid of the sparrowhawk.
Then Tsumi turned her body and turned to the young goshawk.
A sparrowhawk that turns its body and faces a goshawk
Tsumi, who is about to be kicked out, relentlessly attacks the young goshawk.
The young goshawk is surprised and surprised, and runs away for the time being.
Or rather, I had no choice but to run away.
Goshawks also make a sharp turn to compete, but Tsumi is quick and easy to follow.
It's completely different from the crow opponent.
It's hard to put yourself in a superior position.
A young goshawk, Tsumi, who runs away hard, comes with plenty of room
Its turning ability is far below that of a small sparrowhawk.
As I was chasing after my brother, I twisted my body and twisted and turned sharply, but I couldn't wind the sparrowhawk.
Finally, a young goshawk attached to the back of a sparrowhawk
I managed to turn around and take the back of the sparrowhawk.
I immediately escaped to the sky
She quickly escaped to the sky.
The ascending power of the sparrowhawk is overwhelmingly higher than that of the goshawk due to its small body.
With one flutter, it soars in a blink of an eye.
And again, it will soon be attached to the back.
Regardless of what it may be, it seems that the young goshawks found out that they couldn't reach the sparrowhawks in the sky.
In the aerial battle between Goshawk and Tsumi, Goshawk is completely eliminated.
A young goshawk that has become a complete loser
The young goshawk had no choice but to escape so that it would not be damaged by its feathers.
No matter what I do
The father of the three Goshawk brothers, Tsumi, who was a master of hunting but couldn't get his hands and legs out of his flying ability.
It wasn't a very good match for the young goshawk.
There are some scary guys out there
Young birds who expand their range of activities every day and learn about the wide world.
It was clearly shown that there are some who have higher flight ability than their own goshawks.
"Even so, I'm glad my brothers didn't see the cool part of running away!"
After a while, this forest of Otaka, where young birds freely come and go, will be robbed by familiar existence and expelled.
