Sparvhök - Accipiter nisus - Sparrowhawk

Click to see with Light box
 The young Sparrowhawk surprised me as I rarely see any.
Here it sits on the roadside security beam showing off it´s dirty feet. Fooled me a lot as I thought they were black not yellow.

I am told young ones often have eyes in the neck. As this one clearly have.
