I returned home from meeting Andy, one of the conservation volunteers, up at St. Nicholas Church at around 10:45 a.m.
As I looked out of my flat window, I saw a bird perched on the roof of one of the houses opposite. I initially thought it was one of the local Collared Doves or a small Woodpigeon but it didn't look "quite right".
I had a quick look through my binoculars to confirm that it was a Sparrowhawk.
I turned to reach for my camera only to see that it had gone when I looked back.
I am still trying to convince myself that a photo through window glass and through early morning mist would not have resulted in a good result .... but it is still potentially one that got away!
