Falcon again

Haven’t seen one of these in a few years, but this morning there was a sparrowhawk on the bird feeder.  I am pretty sure it must have got its prey because there were feathers strewn at the base of the bird table.  It was gone in a few minutes and shortly after that the small birds were back.

They don’t stay frightened for long, possibly because they are too stupid, or possibly because instinct tells them that there is safety in numbers.
