Kaleen this morning.
I saw the collared sparrowhawk twice on the powerlines.  Then I walked a bit further and there was a tree full of superb fairy wrens, yellow rumped thormbills, weebills, pardalotes all going beserk.  On looking further, there was the sparrowhawk in the same tree!  The panic continued for about 5mns.  Then it died down and the little birds went about their business.  The sparrowhawk went to sleep!!  I guess he'd already had his breakfast!!
