I have a sparrowhawk living in my area and I've seen it three or four times over the past year or two, devouring a kill in my next door neighbours tree. I've also seen loads of feathers in the garden at other times, presumably from the sparrowhawk, although it could be from a fox.
I'm no bird photographer, but I'd like to get a shot of the sparrowhawk. I kept my camera in the kitchen for 2 months so it would be handy next time it called in and I did get out into the garden with my zoom lens on once, but it escaped before I could get it!
Are there particular times of day or year I should be on the lookout? Anyone got any ideas for other things I can do, or is it just down to luck?
