    Default My little Vistor

    I had an unexpected visitor in my garden today, it was dull and wet and I think it is a sparrowhawk but really not sure. It is difficult to tell in the snaps but it had very yellow legs

    Yes, agree with Beryl Sparrowhawk Neil which may reduce your garden birds a 'little' too.
