SPARROWHAWK.

Post updated on 5th February 2026.

There has been another sighting of the wonderful SparrowHawk at the Rife again. Photographer and regular visitor to the rife Mick Healey had a fantastic view of the bird yesterday (4th February). His photos can be seen on the Facebook group.

This particular fantastic photograph was taken by Valerie Borrell who is a member of the Ferring Rife Wildlife Facebook group. Many thanks to her for posting the image and allowing it to be added to this website.

The SparrowHawk has been sighted a few times this year around the Rife and it's always amazing to watch.
