In addition to these we hope to bring you photos of the following community raptors: Golden Eagle, Northern Goshawk, Broad-winged Hawk, Rough-legged Hawk, Barn Owl and Short-eared Owl. Some of the photos below can be enlarged by clicking on them. If you have a photo of one of the missing raptors that you would like to share please contact Chris Powell.
