29th November
Sparrowhawk over Pellon Lane.
7 Waxwings this PM at Silverwood Avenue feeding on berries also 3 Sparrowhawks seen today in the Pellon area.
Good shots all of them,as a footnote my local Sparrowhawk is up and around 4/5 times a day and last week took 2 Sparrows and a Collered Dove in my garden.
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,

The Sparrowhawk has a real ful crop - nice shot of the Waxwing too.
Yes it had a full crop but was still hunting, must be the winter conditions driving the bird to the extreames.
