Sparrowhawks Nesting 2022

A full Film of a pair of breeding sparrowhawks,from nestbuilding to chicks 4 weeks after leaving nest

[@franshuttlewood4649]

Wow what a fabulous film! We get Sparrowhawks in our garden several times a day but just fleeting glimpses. Fantastic to see such a detailed insight into their lives. Thank you. Excellent work.

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

Thankyou soo much! cheers for watching!

[@robinedwards6019]

A very good and very watchable film. Amazing that all 6 chicks fledged.

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

Brilliant film,a real insight into these elusive Hawks.

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

Thankyou for watching!

I love hawks. I've been feeding a Red-Shouldered hawk family for almost 15 years and I have seen many generations come and go. Amazing birds. Never saw a Sparrowhawk nest before and they are beautiful!

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

Thankyou soo much Mary!

Wonderful footage and clearly a lot of hard work gone into the making of this .

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

Thankyou very much !

An absolute joy to watch "I'm an amateur all genre photographer and my dream is to photograph these magnificent birds someday.

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

Thankyou soo much! glad you enjoyed!

[@mxyptlk]

Absolutely beautiful film Steven.... the quality of the filming and intimacy you have captured of such a shy secretive bird disguises the time, fieldwork and effort involved to achieve such results...8 weeks of pleasurable but hard work for you have resulted in a quality production. Congratulations indeed...!!!

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

Very impressive, such a glimpse into the life of an elusive bird. A pair nested in the high trees behind my house. You heard them, but rarely saw them, the female would fly at around dusk, when it was almost dark. Thank you!

And again i have to say, fantastic work!! I like to see how the parents fly to the nest and away, like the scene at 15:23 👍 And how the male throws the food and she catches it, a really good team!

The film is awesome, Steve! I was watching it with a great pleasure and admired it. It shows many aspects of the sparrowhawks` life. I suppose there were 3 or more cameras at work. 6 chicks is maximum that I`ve ever seen.

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

Thanks soo much Sergei! Yes a gopro8 fixed on the nest for 3 months and two others on plucking post!

Fantastic video of my favorite genus of avians. Did we lose one as I could only count 5 heads after the third week? Or did I simply miscount? Reminded me of my childhood in Glasgow, spending endless hours in the Cathkin Braes woods. Thank you.

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

thanks for watching! all 6 were there,one was lying down close to the trunk.

[@helpmehelp3009]

When I was a boy, these were really preyed upon by the local games keepers, so was I, as I used to shoot partridge without their permission. Now I don't shoot anything, and I only try to take pictures. I have a few photos of Sparrow Hawks, but nothing as good as these great job and two really good parents.

Really incredibly great shots! May I know what technique you used? I've been studying the species for years and have published a few sparrowhawk videos on my channel, but the videos on your channel can't be compared, simply wonderful insights into the life of sparrowhawks!

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

thankyou soo much! I install a gopro 8 At nest with a power cable running down the tree.I have a large battery at the bottom which keeps it recording for 8 hours a day lasting aprpx a week! I then get the videos using wifi on my phone.This means there is minimal disturbance.

One of these landed in my yard the other day and I didn't know what the heck kind of bird it was it looks like a falcon so I did some searching and a sparrowhawk was hunting in my yard because I feed the birds I've had Cooper hawks a couple of times this past summer they are so so fast

[@Glasgowurbanwildlife]

extremely fast! lucky you! thanks for watching!

each bird built nest on it`s own skill in variety of shapes with luxury bed for some, who teach them all ? i can not even make one match box perfectly.
