Which type of falcon/hawk is this?

That is a Sparrowhawk Celia!

Sparrowhawk

Thanks a lot

Thanks Cin!!

n.b. nesting season is over. They seem to disperse afterwards. Not seen a sparrowhawk here for a few weeks. Yours may have moved to the area recently. Re doves, they were a preferred/easy catch in this and prev area until they were eliminated.
