Sparrowhawk ♂, Accipiter nisus
|
On July 5th I met Mark at Chiddingfold Forest and saw White Admirals and a Turtle Dove which called from the top of a dead tree. On the way home I stopped at Houghton Forest where I found a Red Admiral larva.
On July 6th Sue called me to the window where we watched a male Sparrowhawk plucking a bird on the paving below - wow!
