Northern Goshawk
(Accipiter gentilis)
A powerful raptor of northern forests, the Northern Goshawk is the largest North American accipiter (AK-sip-e-ter). It maneuvers through dense woods, taking prey as small as squirrels and as large as grouse, crows, and snowshoe hare. The Northern Goshawk is found across northern America and Eurasia. Most of the Eurasian races have much more dark barring on the chest than the American form, but about half of all Siberian goshawks are nearly white.
Wildlife artist Kathie Miller has captured her with loving details in colored pencils.
