What a fantastic photo of the very regal looking sparrowhawk Sheila, still glad the one's around here are staying in the park!!! A fellow dog walker told me this morning he had sighted two buzzards and a small bird that resembled a buzzard in the park this morning, lovely to know but yet again I hope they leave my beauties alone!!!

Magnificent photo Sheila, we had several visits from a Sparrowhawk late last summer and although they are beautiful creatures I am pleased not to have seen it lately (I hope that's not tempting fate!).
yes denis she was bigger,I still get a little confused but have just looked back at some old posts of mine where I had close shots of one stalking a bird and it did look smaller and had the colouring underneath.Thanks for taking the time to post your comments though really appreciated Sheila
For all who have lost.
GODS LENT CHILD by Sue Coad
I'll lend you for a little while a child of mine God said,for you to love thee while he lives and mourn for when he's dead.It may be six or seven years of forty-two or three,but will you,till I call him back,take care of him for me?
He'll bring his charms to gladden you,and should his stay be brief,you'll always have his memories as solace in your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay,since all from earth return,but there are lessons taught below I want this child to learn.
I've looked the whole world over in my search for teachers true,and of all the folk that crowd life's lane I have chosen you.
Now will you give him all your love and not think the labour vain nor hate me when I come to take this lent child back again.
I fancy that I heard them say "Dear God Thy Will Be Done"For all the joys this child will bring,the risk of grief we'll run.
We will shelter him with tenderness,we'll love him while we may and for all the happiness we've known,we'll ever-grateful stay.
But should the Angels call him much sooner than we'd planned,we will brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand.

Great photo, Sheila, I agree with Lynmiranda in saying that's a female.

Well Denis I do think this is a female as it has no orangey colouring underneath just the barring
