Not surprisingly my garden was devoid of little birds, only a bolshie Magpie and two Woodpigeons were having a look around for food. No doubt the Magpie was after scraps once the Sparrowhawk had finished with it's kill!
When I returned home from therapy...retail therapy...all that remained of the Blackbird was a pile of feathers and it's beak.
Fantastic pics Pam,what a gruesome and yet awesome sight he is......you have to feel sorry for the Blackbird but the Spawk has to eat too!
ReplyDeleteGruesome but as you say the Spawk has to eat Ruth. I am just glad that I did not see the initial kill as that to me is very distressing, I am a softie at heart.lol. I took the pics from an open landing window so as not to disturb the Sparrowhawk. It was a bit gruesome finding just the beak and feathers remaining on my return home.
