sparrowhawk problems again??

[kev01293]

a couple of weeks ago i reported on pigeonbasics that i was starting to have sparrowhawk problems and that one was seen around my loft,after a couple of days things seemed to go quite with no more hawk sightings so i started to let my birds out for excercise again.all seemed ok for a while until i noticed at feeding time one day that 4 birds were missing-1 pair on youngsters and 2 other old birds[the latebred youngsters are for a friend] the next morning the hen to the youngsters returned with another missing old bird and the following day the cock bird returned leaving only 1 old bird missing[this being a stray that was given to me after being lost on a hard channel race]that had been in my loft for 18 months,im assuming that the reason for these birds going missing is due to hawks, especially the pair sitting youngsters? any thoughts/advice on this would be appreciated

One hundred and seventy-four pellets regurgitated by one individual of the Desert race of the -Eagle Owl (Bubo bubo ascalaphus) yielded 765 individuals representing five mammals (four rodents and one insectivore), undetermined snakes and lizards, at least three birds, three and two confirmed scorpions and beetles respectively, and unidentified solpugida and beetles species. By frequency, arthropods constituted 50.8% of the diet, mammals 36.8%, reptiles 9.1% and birds 3.3%. The results suggest that the Eagle Owl is an opportunistic hunter and feeds on a wide range of animals.
