While I waited for the raptors, a mixed flock of Daurian Jackdaw(達烏里寒鴉)& Carrion Crow(小嘴烏鴉)quietly flew over my head & headed south.

I guess the issue in the first batch about only the first being N. Goshawk and all the rest being Amur Fs is just a formatting one, but in the second batch aren't the second, third and probably fourth images N Goshawk?

Actually I haven't consulted any texts, am not intrinsically expert enough to count accipters' fingers - since it's of little no use in the field in my experience - and may be completely wrong.

Mike, thanks for your comments. I've corrected the id of the photos. Actually most of these raptors are new to me, so I just start to learn how to id these birds.

That's OK Paul.

Wrt the N Goshawks I THINK that's what they are.
