Sparrowhawk
Photo: Keith Fox (Panasonic DMC-TZ30)
Nice, but grizzly photo Keith, nature at work, it seems to have been a fairly large bird that was killed, what would have been?
What a great shot Keith - and right on your doorstep. A well siezed opportunity.

Talk about spitting feathers, I can't wait for the varied comments about this pic.
She's a beauty!
The sparrow did;nt have no chance'; nasty hawk.
I bet this event would have great on a video.
Great pic - welcome to the club, Keith (see 16th Jan 2011).
Just got to this one, wow!!!! Yes a bit grizzly but a bird has to eat and this is what it is all about. Great photo Keith, cheers!!!
stunning shot , best i have seen for some weeks .
Fred,that sparrow was a wood pigeon.
Was it a pigeon, by chance.?
Great shot, Keith.
Brilliant, but, sad piccy,
Looks like it may be a pigeon, Fred.
A really good photo and a lovely bird.
I think you are wrong about the video,Mick.
You can't get a picture as sharp as this one on a video camera.
Great picture. I eat birds too.
Well captured Keith,one swooped down on my aviary last week after my budgies probably couldn't see the wire mesh from high up,no harm done.
what a great photo keith, send it to countryfile im sure they would use it for their calender,
Bet it was a Woodpigeon, by the amount of feathers , and the colour
A regular occurrence in our back garden. Poor pigeons don't stand a chance!
Just remembered we had one caught in the garden netting earlier this year and I got it on video

A Banks is spot on, this is a Calender shot.
OMG !!
Horrible.
Ron D, do you prefer chicken or turkey? - possibly pheasant, grouse or other wild bird?
Jean, your comment on Rev.David`s P-a-D 16th Jan. 2011 was slightly longer than yours above !!
keith fox you should be ashamed thats an iternet photo that was in the paper ,i have a copy ???
Nothing left but feathers- perhaps they'll come in for nest making, nothing wasted in nature.... He'll be full for a week after that dinner!
