sparrowhawk reflection
Taken today when i went back to the same location as the bathing sparrowhawk pic, at around the same time, possibly the same bird came to bath. Think it is a he, because it's smaller right?

350D + 300mm F4L + 1.4 extender
1/250 @ F8
ISO 400

Excellent I think that its a female but will be willing to be shot down.

Great shot - what's she (I agree with Craig) standing on?

Great shot Jack - patience payed off by the look of it! (definately female!)
