| Re: A Sparrowhawk in my garden
Can understand your feeling. I think there is something special about seeing a Sparrowhawk. I think it the combination of them being so quiet and still at times and the ability for a big bird to suddenly appear. You were lucky, when I see one it is usually a glimpse of something moving so quickly through the garden.
You said the were no alarm calls from other birds. The few times I have seen a sparrowhawk close to, there is a very quick burst of alarms and every bird disappears into the nearest thick bush and keeps quiet. |
