Do you know your birds?

This flew into our garden a few days ago with its dinner, we think it is a Sparrow Hawk, but are not too sure.

Haven't seen a pidgeon in the garden since [msnoo]

Yes, Shirley we agree it is a female Sparrow Hawk. Lovely photo.

Hope he cleared up the mess he left behind [msntongue]

Jill she took off with the pidgeon in her feet, just leaving a few feathers

Oh poor thing it looks as though it was a collar dove [msncry]

Does that make it a "Pidgeon hawk" rather than "Sparrow hawk"

Nice pic
