Had a close encounter of the Sparrow Hawk kind today at Caldene fields. I was photographing a female Sparrow hawk whilst hiding behind a bush.
Everything was fine but suddenly the birds posture changed….
And it flew directly at me. I ducked down and covered my face…What I hadn’t realised was a House Sparrow was hiding just above me….So I had a luck escape….sadly the House Sparrow didn’t..
