MORE PICS-Brown Goshawk V Collared sparrowhawk

["Greg & Val Clancy" <>]

No one seems to be looking at the wing shapes of the birds.  The two in 
flight have typical Goshawk wings the single male bird has typical broad 
Sparrowhawk wings.  The tail lengths of the two birds are also too long for 
Sparrowhawk, therfore in this case the birds do have round tails not just 
due to moult.  A Sparrowhawk with tail feathers missing would have a forked 
tail (if the middle feathers were missing) or a straight tail if some outer 
feathers were missing.
