This
photo (apart from being a very nice one) shows something else I would like to
comment on. It is one of several photos I have seen of the Collared Sparrowhawk
that show very white inner webs to the back feathers. It is not a feature often
seen, usually only when the feathers are ruffled. Another accessible example is
on page 136 of the Cuppers' book Hawks in Focus. I don't believe I have noticed
this in the Brown Goshawk. Is there a unknown difference or just a quirk of what
I think I have noticed?

This guy has just spent the last hour and a half enjoying a sparrow
he caught in our garden in Macgregor,I didn’t realize how long it takes for a
small Raptor to eat a small bird.
