Taken on 16/09/2013
The dove flew into the window trying to escape the sparrowhawk and landed twitching on the patio. The sparrowhawk, also dazed, sat on the kitchen roof for a few moments to recover then flew down, stood on the dove and proceeded to pluck and eat it! This took it about twenty minutes to do before it realised I had been filming it all this time and it flew off with the remainder of its meal. This is, at least the third time I have witnessed this in the garden but this is the best views I’ve had.
Equipment
Nikon P510.
