December 2010 - Sparrowhawk eats House Sparrow
Tuesday 14th: This afternoon I disturbed a Sparrowhawk in our garden. I assumed that it flew away but hen I looked out of the window upstairs, I saw the raptor stood on the empty aviary in the next garden, devouring the dead House Sparrow that it caught. It took the Sparrowhawk approximately 40 minutes to tear and eat the carcass. Afterwards, it cleaned its beak and flew off towards the local wood.
