    Sparrowhawk? Staines Moor, UK.

    working on the proportions of the photo,feet to tail length give it a short tailed look,and bulging secondaries would prompt me to say Goshawk

    Hi Garry,surely "PREM"(lol) players,have pagers and don't depend on the free BF or Birdguides news,so the decision to chase is not based on BF threads surely,and wether to go or not is entirely up to yourself.
