Sparrowhawk earlier in the month.

yes our female often sits very quietly, waiting.
good capture. I rarely get a decent photo.

Well, they've got to eat too. I love birds of prey, don't know why, perhaps there's something suspect somewhere in my genes :-( Good photo) .

We have a female who swoops past regularly, more frequently this past week. Beautiful birds, hate to think of them snatching a little bird, but, it’s nature and hunger!

We also have a sparrow Hawk which flies in without warning and did catch one little bird once which was so upsetting!
