is it common to see a sparrowhawk try to catch a bat saw this yesterday morning it was amazing
Hi Tink
Wow - that must have been a great sight!
And in answer to your question, although other birds make up a large part of a sparrowhawks diet, they are opportunistic hunters, so will definitely take a bat if they can get it!
Hope that helps.
