Sunday, 4th August. Sitting in her garden, Carole M was thinking there were not many birds around due to the hot weather, when she was startled by a whoosh and thud as two birds landed three feet away from her. One, which she thought was a Sparrowhawk, shot through a gap in the trees leaving what I thought was a headless Woodpigeon - however, the pigeon later recovered and flew off.
The next day, early morning, she peered through a gap in our bedroom curtains and was surprised to see the Sparrowhawk ripping at the remains of a pigeon. Clearly it had returned to complete its 'unfinished business'.
