I have confirmed this based on the very pointed edge to the wings, body proportions and the orange colouring I can see in photo 2.

The last 2 photos are an Accipiter species (Goshawk/Sparrowhawk), and should be removed and made into a separate sighting.

Sorry I didn’t see the last two photos. Were they added after? I agree with Luke.

Thanks guys, sorry about that, to many raptors out here in Throsby and the all look similar to an untrained eye. The two offending pics have been removed and I will add the new sighting shortly
