Shocking,Its a good job its not something that happens often, I think it must have been wounded or something.

Seen it happen in Greenock town center ,although I booted the seagull about 20 ft in air ,it was trying to kill a wee squeaker running about road another older lady hit the seagull with her bag . I got hold of the wee bird and put it out of harms way but the seagull went right after it soon as left the scene . The video it looks like it's a pretty young bird maybe 4 weeks old .seagulls they are the real rats with wings .

It was fully grown and a male, they are very different sizes and hunt different birds.

Basically a Musket is a male sparrowhaw is it not, that cant hunt pigeons only the female sparrowhawk can.But at what stage can the female catch and hunt the pigeon.
