i would have thought small british birds up to the size of a pigeon,are more afraid of the sparrow hawk than the cat .fantastic birds they are .the starlings clicking call lets you know they are about if you miss em .shame the clips crap.

I managed to get a brief clip of a male one on my neighbour's fence this afternoon. Didn't stay for too long though and it didn't managed to get a snack. Scared all the Starlings and other birds nearby away for a while.

My wife and me have been bought our house some years ago. When we unloaded some small things from the car, a small bird (sparrow) and behind it a a sparrowhawk flied throuh the car. They flied by one open door inside and opposite door outside the car.

I once saw a mal Sparrowhawk, chase and kill a Pigeon just a few meters from me my fiancee and the kids, there were also bikers watching too (every one of us were amazed). It was the best 5mins I'd seen of a bird of prey in action.
