Video, Independence of a young bird "Goshawk, a bird of prey that has advanced into the city"

It's been a long time ago, but I'll look back on the past and talk about goshawks.


A goshawk that happened to meet in a nearby park when he returned to Japan three years ago.

Up close wild animals, carnivorous birds of prey at the top of the ecosystem.

I was worried about the upcoming ecological drama,

While I was in Japan, I often went there early in the morning, noon, and evening if I had time.

I've blogged about this goshawk several times before, and it's in a half-finished state.

I have quite a few unpublished photos and videos at hand.

This time, from the end of July to the beginning of August 2017, in the park, which is a place of relaxation for the people in the city, the appearance of the young chicks that bred and settled in the nest was less than 5 minutes with personal delusions. I summarized it in the video.

Behind the goshawk is a large chorus of cicadas, the hottest summer event.

Not only the caretakers were fascinated by this goshawk, but many people went to the park to see the goshawk.

Come to think of it, Japan is still cold, and the video is in the middle of the hot summer, so I completely forgot the sense of the seasons.

Please note that the caretaker has been in Kenya for a while, and the sense of the seasons in Japan has become strange.


Video: Goshawk, young bird alone, August 2017

This goshawk was often witnessed in the neighborhood even after leaving the nest.

Perhaps he was spending time in the surrounding area, based in trees, such as scattered parks, shrines, and schools.

I was witnessed to be with my mother, so I might have been given a share for a while until my hunting improved.

By the end of the year, when the parent birds began preparing for new breeding, they were no longer seen.

It must have been completely independent.

It's your hand to catch cicadas, and you can afford to throw them and play

Goshawks born and raised in the city may only know the city and may be reluctant to return to the field.

"It's because the branches of a tree are uneven because the small branches are in the way! It's good to have a telephone pole to stop!"

I can't help but hope that the young bird that left for the trip is still doing well somewhere.


I have covered some details of the young birds in the video in the past blogs.

In the future, I would like to update the photos, including the ones I have collected, to keep in mind, even though I say "selfishly", including things about Africa.

I look forward to working with you.
