There I was minding my own business watching World Super bikes when our resident sparrow hawk dropped in for a visit and to dry off. It was quite funny as directly underneath the hawk is the bird feeder. Whilst this bird was sunning itself, a stupid chaffinch thought he would come down for his lunch!!! Luckily for this finch, he saw the hawk seconds before the hawk saw him. The finch aborted his approach, the hawk made a half hearted attempt at an intercept, but quickly settled back onto his perch. I managed to take some beautiful pictures (not of the finch attack) but please accept these are taken from my bed, across the room and through double glazing.
I think this is the same bird I 'snapped' last year in our bird bath. Strange how I like these, but hate with a vengeance the blooming magpies.
