Sparrowhawk Ages





First day back at school today so not much birding done again, however the resident Grey Wagtail pair provided a good yeartick. On the way home I had a couple of sightings of Sparrowhawks and it got my thinking about some of the birds I've photographed in my garden and what ages they are. I think they are as pictured above:
1) Adult female
2/3) Juvenile Female
4) Adult Male
5) Adult Male in moult?
Any opinions appreciated.

  1. Hi Jonny,

    Fantastic work thus far mate, really enjoyed all your posts, with some fab writing and photos.It sounds like you have started the year really well - I am very jealous in particular of 5 Long-eared Owls! I will continue to keep up to date with the blog - keep it up!
