Check out the last half of the video about the flight of the Goshawk.

The Goshawks are considered "master of maneuver." They are quite capable of flying through thick forest and bushes with great accuracy. I don't think I would even attempt to approach a Goshawk's nest like we did with the Swainson's Hawk this summer. Their aggressiveness, speed, and maneuverability could injure us severely even if trying to stand next to a post or a tree.
