Ok, not the rarest of birds on the list, but I had quite a spectacular sight at lunchtime (if in a somewhat bizarre location).
I had a sparrowhawk being mobbed by a load of blackbirds whilst I was walking down Horsforth Town Street on my lunchbreak. The hawk couldn't have been more than 6 inches off the pavement & was heading straight towards me before veering off!!

Sparrowhawks always brighten my day. Had one over my house yesterday, bringing the garden species list up to a respectable 6.
