11.04.2010 at 06.13, Kaavi, Syrjävaara. During the winter, the Northern Goshawk and the lynx hunt grouse in the forest. During the depths of winter, these game birds such as black grouse, its hazel cousin and the willow ptarmigan burrow into the snow for shelter. However, at times the birds have to leave their snow burrows for a few hours and seek food in the trees. At this time, a Northern Goshawk may be able to pounce on a weakened bird. During the night, the lynx can prey on the birds as they cower in their burrows. When the lynx finds evidence that a bird is nearby, it creeps up near to the burrow and as the bird tries to flee, the lynx bounds forward to trap its prey. The mating season of the Northern Goshawk takes place in April. In this track, you can hear the courtship ritual of a pair of Northern Goshawks recorded at the edge of a swamp in an ancient conifer forest. Black grouse, European robin, Great spotted woodpecker, Common chaffinch.
