Sparrowhawk [Accipiter nisus]

I woke up, and I looked out my window, and there was a juvenile Sparrowhawk. What a beautiful surprise.

  10. Oh what a wonderful gift to find right outside your window. Your photos are just stunning.. as always.

    Thank you so much for your kind words on my post about Skitty. I know you're not overly fond of felines and so your warmth touched me all the more. Thanks, Bob. Hugs to you.

    1. It doesn't catch anything, with about a hundred House Sparrows, I was quite a bit surprised. He/she was a younger, but I don't know.
