Re: Sparrowhawk menace?

There used to be a peanut feeder in the tree outside my office, well visited by Great Tits and Blue Tits. Occasionally I used to see all the birds sitting still, and I'd know there was a Sparrowhawk about. He/she used to take one or two, but there are still plenty around - I don't think it affected the population to any great extent. As someone else said, Sparrowhawks have got to live.
