Sparrowhawk at Seafield

 I was walking along the beach at Seafield watching the shore birds when the noise of a few thousand Starling went up behind me.

I quickly looked round, Id missed the kill that this juvenile Male Sparrowhawk had made. It landed on the grass of a dune to assess the kill and then floated over the dune out of sight

An untidy looking bird and Id say a meal well needed if he gets to keep it.
