Hi John,
 
I've seen a Collared Sparrowhawk three times in the last 10 days just around our house- French St. Hackett.  The first time it was in hot pursuit of I think a Crimson Rosella which looked to be as big if not bigger than it.  The other two times just circling overhead hunting.  Must have a nest nearby but I don't know a) where or b) how big a territory they usually occupy so to what area I should limit my searching given Geoffrey's earlier request for pairs?
 
Cheers,
 
Peter Miller
