Sadly I have had to (temporarily) cease feeding the birds in my garden in order to discourage a rat from entering my loft, but looking out of the window today I saw this character at the end of my garden who had obviously no intention of going hungry!
This female sparrowhawk had caught a pigeon and was methodically pulling out feathers and insides , making a terrible mess as she did so, but by hiding behind various trees/shrubs I was abe to get quite close (within 5 metres) before she flew off.
