Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) female

Fribourg, Suisse

A wood pigeon, casually enjoying whatever a wood pigeon eats, was suddenly attacked by this predator which appeared in a great swoop. I believe it is a Sparrow Hawk but not sure whether it could be a Goshawk.

Anybody able to be definite?

Previously 'unknown'. Thanks for the help with the ID Well-Born Pirate.

At Porters Pond. Took several shots of the hawk today, posing in the tree for a good 5 minutes.

Decided to swap out the 200-500mm for the 80-200mm just for fun to see what was happening up at Forest Park and was just in the right place at the right time for this Bald Eagle

The Red Kite; a magnificently graceful bird of prey is unmistakable with its reddish-brown body, angled wings and deeply forked tail. It was saved from national extinction by one of the world's longest running protection programmes, and has now been successfully re-introduced to England and Scotland.
