eurasian sparrowhawk

This is a heavy crop as the bird was getting further away, but it shows the pale fringes on the greater coverts which identify it as 2cy (ie hatched last year). Thank you for your comments on my pictures, stay safe and well, and good birding! John

This second calendar-year bird was a welcome visitor on Thursday last week. Thank you for your comments on my pictures, stay safe and well, and good birding! John

Epervier d'Europe - Accipiter nisus - Eurasian Sparrowhawk

Just had a Sparrowhawk visit the garden. It was circling round the hedge obviously looking for a small bird but had no luck, it has been years since one has visited the garden.

Many thanks for all comments on this Sparrowhawk.

I was running out of photos until this Sparrowhawk turned up and made my day. It was spitting with rain when I got these shots.

Didn’t mind having its photo taken.

Got close up to this Sparrowhawk while it was dying out. My lucky afternoon today.
