Re: Wildlife Thread
That's wonderful Darksky. Deer are such graceful creatures.
With the sparrowhawk, I see it as a natural event. There is a temptation to attach human sentiments to something that is as natural as breathing. The raptor has to eat or it dies, and with a hooked bill, it can't eat seeds or insects. That's two kills in our garden in two weeks.
