Has anyone ever seen a Sparrow hawk or a Peregrine in London? A couple of weeks ago I saw a hawk duelling with two crows, close to Westbourne Park, on the Canal. After a few minutes, the hawk went and perched on top of a phone antenna. Unfortunately it was too far away to get a phone snap.
The chest and underwing markings made me immediately think it was a peregrine. -

Thanks @Regal, same here, but this one is my least worn over the years, so it's on the block... I will probably make it to T4AP on Tue, so hopefully catch up there, and I can berate you about Seiko's falling apart on me...

Thank you @lesterama, @v11boy, @HarmanMogul , @marxist_vulcan , @picco ...
She sure is an absolute beauty, and I have probably way underpriced, but way better that someone enjoys here on the forum, than it just gathering dust in my Loft...
Will probably list my Columbus Air Gios Aerodynamic next.. but that one I still vaguely believe I am going to build up... Even after 10 years of not getting round to it
