Sparrowhawk on fence

HFF! A combination of fence and wildlife - I spotted this Sparrowhawk perching on a barbed wire fence, looking for potential meals in the grass and bushes.

A fine capture here Gavin. Very likeable. Well done
Coincidently, we had one on our bird feeder today but only a blurred phone photo t show for its quick visit. Not seen one in our garden for a couple of years now.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb
