ooohh... this is a tough one... I often complain that Australian wildlife is boring, but with birds of prey this really isn't the case. In just my corner of South East Queensland alone I have seen all of these- Pacific Baza  Collared Sparrowhawk  Black breasted buzzard  Osprey  Swamp Harrier  Box tail Kite  Black Shouldered Kite  Letterwing Kite  Brahminy Kite  Whistling Kite  Black Kite  Nankeen Kestrel  Australian Hobby Falcon  Brown Falcon  Black Falcon  Peregrine Falcon  Grey Goshawk  Brown Goshawk  Boobook  Sooty owl  Barking owl  Masked owl  Powerful Owl  Little Eagle  White bellied sea eagle  Wedge Tailed Eagle  Many of these aren't even hard to see or rare. My favourites? I guess 1. Brown Goshawk 2. Peregrine Falcon 3. Little Eagle 4. Grey Goshawk 5. Wedge tailed eagle Though that can readily change at any given time. Peregrine was my favourite all through childhood, that's pretty much the only reason it's still there. I think goshawks > Falcons now tbh. |

Still thinking @hammerhead Bolushi Hardcastle @ajay oldgreengrolar and etc. 1. Red tailed hawks just seem really cool. 2. Great horned owls are the largest species of owl in my area, the most impressive, and I love their tufts. 3. I like ospreys for their uniqueness and fish-catching ability. 4. Bald eagles for their size, talons, and being so iconic. 5. Turkey vultures for being the only vulture in my area. |

1. Great horned owl
2. Barred owl
3. Red tail hawk
4. Bald eagle
5. osprey AKA Seahawk
6. Peregrine falcon
7. goshawk
