The Grey Goshawk (Tachyspiza novaehollandiae) is a medium-sized forest raptor found along the coasts and forests of northern, eastern, and southeastern Australia, as well as Tasmania. This species is unique for its two colour forms: a grey morph and a pure white morph, the latter being the only all-white bird of prey in the world. The Grey Goshawk is the largest goshawk species in Australia and is known for its robust build and powerful hunting abilities.
