Nesting chronology of northern goshawks (Accipiter gentilis) in Wales: implications for forest management

Northern Goshawks ( Accipiter gentilis ) in Wales built or refurbished nests between September and April in a semi-upland environment. Dates of first egg-laying ranged between late March and mid-May. There was no statistically significant annual difference in these dates. Most young hatched in late...
