		It is found from the map that almost all the area which may be suitable as the northern goshawk’s nesting habitat is concentrated in the eastern half of the County; the western half portion of the County endowing a few small fragmented patches.
		Even though the entire County is forested and located at high elevation, about one third portion of its total area (and not the whole) is suitable to satisfy basic habitat requirements of this hawk, especially for nesting.
