The Common Northern Goshawk

This organization (Common Northern Goshawk), founded and foundered, or if you prefer, floundered by me was an attempt to inform that NG were a common species in most areas of the United States, and were moving into cities and suburbs, and have been doing so for many years. After obtaining my papers to operate a nonprofit organization- and realizing that I could not bring birders into the fold, after 1 year of obtaining the license, I realized that it was time to cut my losses. So, 6 months later, I dissolved the nonprofit organization. Basically, it is a testament to lack of interest of birders to take an interest in field work with raptors in flight. But, then again, possibly I have fallen for the trap of thinking that a huge percentage of the population has a serious interest in birds. My opinion is that a very small percentage of population of the United States are seriously interested in birding.
