Had another unusual sighting directly over my home this afternoon at around 25 feet high. 2 Sparrowhawks were scouting for prey within 10 feet of each other in between the rain showers. These birds looked to be of similar size, possibly 2 males? |

Yesterday afternoon at Swanpool I had a male Sparrowhawk chasing a very vociferous Green Woodpecker. The Green Woodpecker managed to escape capture but was clearly very annoyed. |
