A male Eurasian sparrowhawk
(Accipiter nisus) capturing a
common starling. This small bird of
prey species is found throughout the
temperate and subtropical parts of
the Old World, and though it
specialises in catching woodland
birds it can be found in any habitat.
Males tend to take smaller birds,
including tits, finches, and sparrows,
while the larger females catch
primarily thrushes and starlings.
