Sparowhawk

I wondered why the long tailed tits had suddenly disappeared from the suet balls and I had just been upstairs to get my camera to take a shot of them so I had it in my hand and with the lens cap off! Suddenly, this sparrowhawk appeared but only stayed long enough for me to get this shot. Fancy landing on a pigeon!

What a great capture -- how nice of the hawk to land on sucj a perfect place. I hope he didn't try to fly away with that pigeon!
