Wow!  Superb photos, well done.  How lucky you are to have such a beauty in you garden - and so close!  How long was the visit?

Hahahaha@ the cat pelting in through the catflap!!  ;D

This is a sparrowhawk, and 'victim' just beneath my bird table in November 2005. Again not a brilliant photo as I was having to peer from behind the dining room curtains to avoid being seen.
