Goshawk

On the 20th October I was doing odd jobs in the garden when I heard the familiar clatter of panicking Wood Pigeons, I thought Sparrowhawk, but upon looking up a female Goshawk crashed the party and sent Wood Pigeons scattering.  The bird momentarily went out of view before emerging from behind my garden hedge and flying away west without prey.  I was about 30 feet from the Goshawk at its closest to me.
I have encountered Goshawks on a few occasions both in Watton, and from my garden.
