    Northern Goshawk

    Local female Goshawk watching me as I checked her nest last Summer (under licence). She never alarm called or made a fuss which is unusual for this species. The nest itself was eye level to a footpath just metres away so her silence helped in not drawing attention to her three chicks which all...

What do you think? What is it? After some research, I was thinking a...

    Female Sparrowhawk with Starling. Nature at it's most brutal. She visits our garden from time to time. This day she stayed for nearly 4 hours after killing this Starling, eventually flying off with just the carcass.
