Disclaimer: This is not a Sharp-shinned Hawk (Accipiter striatus), it is a European Sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus)! Sharp-shinned Hawk has never been recorded in the wild in the Western Palearctic, let alone Great Britain, where this video was taken, and I am not aware of a European Sparrowhawk having ever been recorded in the wild in North America. Different continents can often hold different species. Hope this helps a tad :)

Its a female right ?
So exciting to see a hawk stand on a dead bird.
And while magpies around waiting for the leftovers.
