	The Raptor Foundation - Sparrowhawk
		It is not unusual for a female sparrowhawk to be mistaken for a male goshawk.
		Sparrowhawks, similar to Goshawks, fly with a repeated sequence of several strong wingbeats, followed by a short glide.
		A sparrowhawk has been observed drowning its prey (a small bird) after capturing it, taking it to a birdbath and submersing it for a few minutes, until it was sure that it was dead.

	Sparrowhawk - a top predator - The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds
		Some people are worried that sparrowhawks eat too many small birds and cause their population to fall or even become extinct.
		The sparrowhawk population was decimated by pesticides entering the food chain in the 1960s and 70s and songbirds numbers remained the same in the hawks' absence.
		It is also worth remembering that sparrowhawks and songbirds have existed side by side for thousands of years without any detrimental effect occurring on the populations of the songbirds.

	Sparrowhawk
		We had never been aware of sparrowhawks in the area until, at the end of June 2002, there came a sudden dark swoop followed by a feathery blur.
		One was unsuccessful but on the third occasion another sparrow was taken and this time the sparrowhawk continued up into the Oak tree to deal with its catch, where the first picture on the right was hastily taken.
		The first sighting of the Sparrowhawk in 2003 was in April, and it was seen once each in May and June, each time as a brown shape passing through the garden.

	Sparrowhawk, Accipiter nisus
		Quarry is eaten on the ground or on a stump, the hawk standing with both feet on its victim, drooping wings to form a tent and spreading its tail as if to give support.
		It could regularly be seen sailing overhead as it moved to a new hunting ground, or be glimpsed threading its way among the trees in a wood — rapidly but silently — looking for an unsuspecting bird.
		No doubt the element of surprise plays a large part in their capture of prey, but sparrowhawks are capable of performing remarkable pursuits and captures of such fast-flying birds as the redshank.

		Knowing that the SparrowHawk will see a lot of ballast for fun flying and slope racing, the wings have an internal spar totally reinforced for the punishment it will see on the slope.
		The SparrowHawk C uses the same construction as the Sparrow C with a few important differences.
		You are able to also order the SparrowHawk c in a full 6 servo version with flaps, ailerons, and ruddervators for the ultimate in control and precise handling.

	Sparrowhawk - Accipiter nisus - English Nature
		The sparrowhawk is a medium-sized and very agile bird of prey that feeds on a range of small birds.
		The sparrowhawk's predation of songbirds makes it unpopular with some but the fear that it will result in population declines stems is quite unjustified.
		Sparrowhawk populations suffered catastrophic declines in the 1960s as a result of persistent pesticides such as DDT.

	BBC - Science & Nature - Wildfacts - Sparrowhawk
		Sparrowhawks are so-named because of their preference for avian prey, as birds make up about 98 per cent of the sparrowhawk's diet.
		Sparrowhawks have a body length of 28-38cm, a wingspan of 60-75cm and weigh 0.1-0.3kg.
		Sparrowhawks are not considered to be globally threatened, although numbers declined very badly due to the use of pesticides.

	Sparrowhawk
		The effects of persecution and pesticides devastated the Sparrowhawk population back in the 1960s and it has only been in recent years that this species has returned to its natural population levels.
		Sparrowhawks are specially adapted to feed on birds.
		Because of this it is extremely unlikely that Sparrowhawk predation could cause the long-term decline of songbirds that we have seen.

		Sparrowhawks are small birds of prey typically between 30 - 40cm tall with a wingspan of 60 - 80cm.
		Sometimes you can hear the alarm calls of birds such as Blackbirds as the anxious parents try to distract the sparrowhawks attention if it is near the nest.
		The male flbird in this AVI can be seen perilously close to a female sparrowhawk as it tries to defend its nest by a mixture of display and sound.

	British Garden Birds - Sparrowhawk
		The Sparrowhawk's hunting technique relies on stealth; it usually watches from a perch among cover for prey, then flies fast and low, again using any available cover, so that it can then seize its intended prey with complete surprise, but if it misses, lengthy chases can ensue even among trees and undergrowth.
		Both adults feed the young birds, though the newly-hatched are usually fed by the female with the male hunting and bringing the food to the nest.
		The Sparrowhawk population crashed because of the use of organochlorine pesticides, such as DDT, in the 1950s and 1960s, which causes a thinning of the egg shell that cannot then take the weight of the incubating female.

	F9C-2 SPARROWHAWK
		The Curtiss F9C Sparrowhawk had originally been designed as a small single-seat shipboard fighter developed in response to a Navy spec laid down on May 10, 1930.
		Contracts for two airships, the USS Akron and Macon had been issued on October 6, 1928, and it was intended from the start that these airships should be capable of carrying aircraft and launching and retrieving them while in flight.
		The Sparrowhawks were then transferred to the Macon, based at Moffett Field, California.

		Of the 50 Mars fighters, 30 became the Sparrowhawk I single seat shore based fighter, 10 the Sparrowhawk II two seat trainer and the remaining 10 the Sparrowhawk III single seat ship born fighter.
		The Sparrowhawk III was however already replaced by the Mitsubishi 1MF Carrier Fighter before flight training could begin on the completed Hosho in 1923.
		The Sparrowhawk III was because of this not used for it's intended role on the Hosho but remained in service until 1928 flying from shore bases.

	Williams Brothers 1/32 F9C-2 Sparrowhawk, by Tom Cleaver
		With restoration completed in 1974, the Sparrowhawk emerged in the markings of the U.S.S. “Macon” unit to which 9056 had been assigned.
		Not only is BuNo 9056 the last surviving Sparrowhawk, it is the only survivor of all the fighters built by Curtiss from 1928-38, that formed the backbone of fighter aviation for the Army Air Corps and the U.S. Navy during the “Golden Wings” era.
		This kit is the most accurate of any of the other plastic kits of the Sparrowhawk available, both of which are 1/72 limited run monsters that make this kit seem like a Tamiya kit in comparison.

		Given the unfavourable weather forecast for 7 October 2006, I was looking for a short and easy day in the mountains and decided to head up Mount Sparrowhawk in Kananaskis Country.
		Starting from some flagging at the edge of the forest just north of Sparrowhawk Day Use area, I followed a well-beaten path heading up through the forest (only on my descent did I realize that there is a good trail further south that goes up Read's Ridge).
		The clouds clear to reveal the summit block of Mount Sparrowhawk.

		So I should hope, because not only would you have been breaking the law - sparrowhawks have been protected since 1954, by the way - but in killing your doves it was just doing what comes naturally to it for which it should not be condemned.
		The average intake of a sparrowhawk is 2 or 3 small birds (sparrow-sized) per day, but if one takes a collared dove and stuffs itself, then it may well not need to feed the following day.
		I am well aware that this is the normal behaviour of sparrowhawks, and I do not endow them with any sort of percieved demonic behaviour, but it does distress me somewhat to see it happen, as the doves give me so much pleasure.

	The Dougout: Sparrowhawk: Wings of Praise
		The catalyst for this diversion is a letter I found in my post office box last Friday the 20th, from a reader who apparently had galloped through the first four titles in the series.
		Parents, especially, are grateful that Sparrowhawk exists, not only for their own “entertainment” and edification, but because it serves as an antidote to what their children are exposed to in school.
		So, I thank Benjamin, Peggy, Mike, Marnee, Erskine, and their countless discriminating fellows for contributing to Sparrowhawk’s success as a contemporary literary phenomenon, for valuing the series as I had envisioned it would be valued, and for demonstrating their own “unchanging youth.” They, too, are fully alive.

		I'll leave it up to you to figure this one out, I'm not a guide so I won't attempt to describe the route to you.
		Mount Sparrowhawk is suited to those who would like to try their hand at a larger peak but don't want to get too involved in route finding or steep terrain.
		Only the summit block has any steep spots on it and although there was some loose debris on the final moderate scramble near the top, if you take it easy and take care you should be OK.
