Seen at dusk yesterday in my GBS area, one Collared
Sparrowhawk clutching bits of a Common Myna (well I picked the brown body,
yellow foot and big white wing patch). My attention was drawn to it by the noise
of gaggle of about 45 Mynas and alarm calls of some Magpies. It was a very brief
look, I believe it was an adult female. It flew up from the ground, over
the shop and I lost it, I then went around the shop. I then had a close look at
an obvious male Collared Sparrowhawk, it flew from near the direction of where
the other went. It was not carrying anything. So hopefully a pair, if they take
one or two Mynas a day..........
