This is the second time in recent weeks that a Sparrowhawk has caught a pigeon and plucked it on our lawn leaving piles of feathers to be collected up.

About Me
- Scriptor Senex
- I'm a blogger - nowadays that seems to be my main occupation and Rambles from My Chair is my main blog. Retired local government executive - now studying how to survive a neurological disorder that gives me various problems but, hopefully, a whole new outlook on life and an increased sense of humour and perspective. I enjoy all manner of communication apart from the telephone and am constantly e-mailing, texting, writing postcards and commenting on other people's blogs. Scriptor Senex is Latin for Old Writer and my real name is John but I've almost forgotten that nowadays... “He’s not so old. He’s just the age that he is, that’s all.” (Gerald Hammond)

What an amazing opportunity and picture. Please can you bring her (I think it's a her) up here. I've lots of pigeons for her. The only sparrowhawk I've ever seen in my garden tried to take a bird from the bird table but crashed into the plants at the side of the pond and nearly did itself a mischief.
