The Space Goshawk, again.

As before, a bird that carries both space and molten gold on it’s wings. This time with ties to time itself, if the spurs on the rings around it’s head are to be believed. An elusive creature.

"A powerful predator of northern and mountain woods. Goshawks hunt inside the forest or along its edge; they take their prey by putting on short bursts of amazingly fast flight, often twisting among branches and crashing through thickets in the intensity of pursuit. In some years, perhaps when prey is scarce in the north, autumn invasions may bring Goshawks well to the south of their normal range in the east and into lowland valleys in the west."
