7th July 2023 - Andy M was sitting in the garden this morning, watching the young Tit and Goldfinch on the feeders. Suddenly there was an alarm call, and they all vanished - a split second later a juvenile Sparrowhawk arrived at speed and landed just above the feeders.
Missing its target, the Sparrowhawk took a few moments to look around, then was off again across the garden. This juvenile has a brown back, with wing feathers edged slightly paler, whereas adult birds have slate-grey backs.
