Collared Sparrowhawk

A shot of a Collared Sparrowhawk in our weeping myrtle tree in the back yard.I've taken two series of shots over the last couple of years. It probably visits more often than we know. I detected it's presence this time by noticing fresh feathers on the ground and then looking up.It preys on small birds. An efficient hunter and likes to sit for a couple of hours after eating.
