Saw My First Sparrowhawk Kill Today

Whilst on my way to do a little roost shooting today I witnessed a pigeon come off second best to a sparrowhawk.(hope my identification is correct,apologies to anyone ready to slate me if I'm wrong)

 

I was just making a right turn and saw it off in the field on top of the pigeon.

 

I stopped and grabbed my phone and it took flight and circled around its prey and very briefly landed in a nearby tree, before circling once more.

 

I only managed to get a very brief clip of it before an impatient 4x4 appeared being me, making me move on.

 

Was fascinating to see in the flesh.
