- Female Goshawk makes way for Common Buzzard, buzzes it a few times then the Buzzard gets thumped.
The trail camera catches the moment that a female Goshawk lost patience with this Buzzard. incredibly the buzzard was back stealing food again the next day.

The bird they're fighting over got thumped the worst!
Goshaws are stealth hunters. They take their time to observe their prey and strike at the best unexpected moment. The buzzard was very likely attacked from behind, so there was no long fight.
Don't mess with goshawk.
A Buzzard vs Goshawk is a very even match. The Buzzard is a tougher bird but the Goshawk is quicker.
Goshawk is tougher AND quicker than a buzzard. By a mile.
The goshawk is a very shy bird, but is far stronger than the common buzzard. When it really comes down to it, the common buzzard has no chance. The female Goshawk hawk also hunts hares. A common buzzard with its weak claws never be able to do that. The female goshawk is much larger than the male.
Buzzard was surelly desperate to get bite of that kill.
Wild birds dont usually go so fat that there is claw to claw ineraction. It surely had really bad feather condition, but we can only guess how long "therm" that was
Intelligent HAWK! Wonder what happened to the buzzard?
When I returned a week later to change the SD card I was quite amazed to see the buzzard back on the bait the next afternoon.
@@ronniegraham6334Seems that both birds are tenacious and persistent?
A beat up juvenile buzzard. Broken feathers etc.
Tell me if I'm wrong but looks like a little male Goshawk ,orange eyes.
Yes, this is the male goshawk from a nearby nest site.
Cheer's @@ronniegraham6334
Great vid Ronnie 😮
Cheers Peter. Hope all is well with you.
Funny, I’ve always known a buzzard as a vulture.
Buteo Buteo is the common Buzzard. The original settlers to N. America were clearly not very good at recognising birds and misnamed a vulture as a Buzzard!
Bird of prey but will scavenge wen they need to
Excellent video,i love Goshawks,the terminator of the bird world, thanks for sharing...
Theres a video on you tube where someone is hunting rabbits with a goshawk, but it actually gets a buzzard, think its called the hunter becomes the hunted.
What happened to that Buzzard's tail, usually wild raptors don't have feather problems? These videos aren't staged, are they?
How exactly do you think this was staged?
@@ronniegraham6334
Okay, by your reaction I'm assuming it's it wasn't staged. The reason I asked, was because there's so many videos, especially from third world countries, that use captive raptors portraying wild birds. You probably saw some of those videos. As I mentioned, your video shows a wild Buzzard that had a completely destroyed tail, usually caused by being in a wire cage. I was just curious about that.
@@oldschoolhawking8191 that bird is a juvenile, their first set of feathers can get very tattered before they eventually molt into their first set of adult feathers. The pale eye, lighter brown overall, pale fringes to the feathers and lack of an black band running along the wing edge and tail end indicates juvenile plumage common buzzard.
I've never seen a wild raptor with that kind of tail damage and I've been at for 60 yrs.
@@peregrinesmith1117
Yes, I haven't either. You might see a wild raptor with one, maybe two broken tail feathers, but nothing close to this one. Something fishy is going on here.
“Thumped”??
Wooow
damn, wish we could see what happened after.
Hi. All I can tell you is that after viewing the contents of the memory card I thought perhaps the Goshawk killed the buzzard, so I went back a few days later and could not find a buzzard carcase. When I got back to view the most recent memory card the same buzzard had been back stealing bait the following afternoon.
After I looked at the card that was in the trail camera and saw what had happened I returned to the site the next day to see if the buzzard had been killed and taken down the hillside a bit. I found no sign of it except a few feathers. I changed the card again and when I looked at the contents I was quite amazed to find that the buzzard with the ragged tail was back again less than 24 hours later feeding on the bait again.
That Buzzard was kept in a cage look at his at Tail 😮
Fowl play
Hello 🤩
What's with all the bird-on-bird crime?!
Fowl play
Its a male Goshawk...
@@JohnMardon what's your point?
@@ronniegraham6334 My point is nothing of a derogatory nature whatsoever, Im just saying and maybe highlighting that is a male Goshawk as you know smaller than the female...thats all....Im sure you knew and know that anyway....Apologies for commenting...
WHERE DOES ANYONE SEE A BUSSARD?
Hi, read this en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_buzzard?wprov=sfla1
What country are you from? That was no buzzard...at least not a turkey buzzard as we know it in America.
Hi,
I'm in Scotland, so this is a common buzzard (buteo buteo)
I'll be darned. Over here in the USA, buzzard means just a carrion eating bird, like a vulture. Nobody likes them. The bird in this video is impressive.@@ronniegraham6334
What buzzard…?
Hi Jim, the bird that comes in with the worn tail is a common buzzard (Buteo Buteo) The bird that is initially on the bait that jumps off and thumps the buzzard is a male goshawk.
I am not an authority, but that is no buzzard. I believe it is another kind of hawk.
Buteo Buteo
There were no buzzards in that video
@@kathleenrose3016 Buteo Buteo Common Buzzard. It's not my fault that early explorers to America didn't know anything about birds and started calling vultures buzzards and buzzards hawks.
Sparrow Hawk surely ?
@willmitchell255 Hi, the hawk in the video is a goshawk (Accipiter Nissus) and the buzzard is a common buzzard (Buteo Buteo)
There's no Buzzard in that video.
OK . So some dummy explorer came over to USA and started naming birds that he didn't know anything about. So you've ended up with hawks that are buzzards. Don't blame me. Let's go Latin, it's hardly a new language. Buteo Buteo = buzzard Accipiter Gentilis = Goshawk These are the birds in the video.
I didn't see a Black or Turkey Buzzard. I saw a Falcon and a Hawk. What gives?
Please. It's Accipiter Gentilis and buteo buteo.
As I understand it, buzzard is an English term for eagle...settlers in the USA thought they were seeing eagles.
....... Not a buzzard....
OK. I bow to your superior knowledge. Please tell me, what is this bird?
@@ronniegraham6334 They are both Hawks. But after googling I see that it's a language issue. As some types of hawks are called buzzards in some parts of the world. I guess what you're calling a buzzard would be called a red-tailed hawk here in Alabama. The first bird is a goshawk. My apologies......
@@ronniegraham6334 It's a Sparrow Hawk
@@willmitchell255 No, it's a Goshawk (Accipiter Gentilis) getting hit by a Common Buzzard (Buteo Buteo)
@@StarTrekFan4Life. Next time do your research before commenting.
That is not a "buzzard"
Really. So what is it then.? Remember it's Latin name is buteo buteo and the USA are renaming many incorrectly named species.
@@ronniegraham6334 It's a Sparrow Hawk
they look the same
