Hag Lane walk this afternoon behind the ski-slope. Lots of birds about on the hill top on the sheltered side looking over Shibden Valley. This adult female Sparrowhawk landed nearby, but behind a bush! It gave a fantastic view in the sunshine, especially the underside - but it was through so quickly it was hard to keep up with !!!
