Nashville, TN Goshawk I have been reading this list for several years now, but this is my first post. I observed what I believe was an immature Goshawk catch a pigeon in flight yesterday at 1515 hours right next to the Titans football stadium. The hawk took the pigeon to the ground within the construction site next to the pedestrian bridge. It then flew onto the construction fence, where it rested for a few minutes. It then made several short flights until it ended up next to an air vent at the bottom of the stadium where it began eating the pigeon alive. The pigeon continued to flap around and try to get away until his head was finally severed. I was able to take several pictures of the bird and will attach a couple for confirmation of the identity.
