Eurasian Sparrowhawk Accipiter nisus



Eurasian Sparrowhawk Accipiter nisus


At first glance, the Sparrow hawk can be mistaken for a Shikra,
Our winter visitor comes soaring through the sky,
Using his uncanny element of surprise attacks,
Makes off with sparrows or other birds in his path.
His short barred grey wings, and long blunt tail,
Can be guided through the bushy canopy in pursuit of its prey.

The Eurasian Sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus), also known as the Northern Sparrowhawk or simply the sparrowhawk, is just a little bird of prey in the family Accipitridae. To know more about the Eurasian Sparrowhawk click:Here
