One difference between the two species is that the Sparrowhawk does not have
a distinct immature plumage, moulting directly from juvenile to adult
plumage.

Sparrowhawk & B. Goshawk so similar? I'd love to know the answer to that. Also with the superficially very similar Black-shouldered Kite and Letter-winged Kite, why so similar when perched, and why the different underwing pattern and eye marking?
