Just bloody sh*t myself (sorry for swearing) Tatty came in to roost and was getting settled, Meanwhile the male (Romeo) always stays outside the box for around 20 mins calling her coming on to box checking on her before he flys across the garden to the handykam box on wall to roost, Anyway he was near top tree and a sparrow hawk flew in and tried to grab him thank god he seen it coming and flew into the ivy!! the sparrow hawk then hit the ivy and flew away, My heart sank at first, 5mins later he come to box to check her and now he's safe roosting in the handykam box.
We have two sparrow hawks in garden male and female, Due to having cages around the feeders makes it harder to kill the birds now while eatting so they have been killing more of the pigeons. But it must of seen our male at top of the tree and thought it would fly in and try its luck.
