    More likely to be a Sparrowhawk.

    These old posts remind us who we've lost - zeity, OrangeHopper. Maybe they were eaten by birds of prey.

    Look out the window and a pigeon is getting eaten. Seems to have carried it but there is a bloody, feathery mess everywhere.

    They are taking over Saff London.

    Their population increases by 30% a year apparently.

    They are damn noisy and not cute at all particularly when they open their bowels.

    Though I remember going to Spain and feeding their parakeets bread. It was funny watching them struggle to try and eat it and not succeed.

    The Green Parakeet and Ringed Parakeet have been added to the Government Pest List so we can now shoot them in England.

    My neighbours have kindly put their bird feeders next to my fence which is great for the Norpusses.

    This would explain the increase in dead avians littering my lawn.
