I've been watching these blackbirds for weeks & have kept our one cat indoors that goes out until they fledge, I thought I have to help it and ran to the lawn luckily the sparrowhawk dropped it and flew off, it survived minus a couple of feathers missing


There's a multitude of wood pigeons on our roof that it can have for tea There's no shortage of those around here.
Nature doing its thing, we came across a dead newborn rabbit while out on this evenings dog walk, only a cpl of days old, no signs of attack from a predator?!
