Just wondering if I chased it of the doo would it come back the next day or so to let me get a closer look at it  ;), I know sparrow hawks return to their kill but didnt think it was the same with percy

They will return but I'm not sure if they will the next day, Percy knocked one of mine down and I waited with the camera  ;) for an hour, nothing went in for 5mins came out and the bird had gone, bloody eyesight is so good  ;D

Couldnt do anything with the doo the other night Frank as it was in a neibhours garden and they have a cat so kind of limited. Just trying to plan ahead incase it happens again. Had the birds out this morning and all was quiet, had the ybs too which was good. Starting to fly well.

I know pal but I had one chase a doo into a window the other night, the doo died outright and percy was sitting on it in the neighbours garden. Also had one hit a roller years ago, was told they clench their front tallons to punch the doo and their back tallon rips the doo open. The roller landed in the garden with its neck ripped open. I binned it so dont know if it might have come back.

lucky to have a mate whos a gamekeeper,asked him a question if percy only takes birds in the dive. just laughed at me and said if your dinner was sitting on the ground not looking would you rather chase one than have one not alert.hes also seen them chase there prey and catch them,younger percys hunt buy all methods .untill they master the skydive
