(Simeon) This male sparrowhawk flew into the net with its dead prey (female chaffinch) at Snettisham Coastal Park this morning. The first shot, of the tail, shows 3 different generations of feathers as the bird had moulted some. By the way, both the Sparrowhawk and the female Chaffinch already had rings on them. 28/4/07 I ringed 2 Willow Warblers, 2 Greenfinch, 2 Linnet, 2 Lesser Whitethroats and a lovely Sedge Warbler. I also held the Sparrowhawk (brilliant)!
