Clean Windows


 The one drawback of our patio doors is that, from time to time, birds fly into them.  Fortunately, the majority of times they recover and fly off.

This morning I was in the kitchen when there was a very loud noise ... something large had flown into one of the doors.  I rushed out to the front door and there was a kestrel, stunned.



 She(?) gradually regained her senses and sat quietly until finally flying off.


(...and funnily enough, yes, Sue had recently cleaned the windows!)

There seems to be some discussion as to whether our bird was a juvenile or adult Kestrel, a Merlin or a juvenile or adult Sparrowhawk.
We're pretty confident that it was a Raptor.
