Hi guys again,

lol I always seem to be uncertain on alot of my birds, sorry. Just wanted to ask your opinions on this bird, I was wondering if it was a female Rufous whistler ? If not any pointers on what it is please, Also saw this raptor today, sorry for the poor photo quality as it's a crop and the bird was very high up sadly. Is it maybe a Collared Sparrow-hawk,thanks again.

Yes,I'd agree with you too.

Spawk is a young one too and the square tail points to it beeing a Sparrowhawk as well.
