Or look for them when they’re migrating, riding the thermals north. That’s how I find most of mine. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, I was saying that I haven't got a good photo of one yet, in agreement with @Connor Cochrane. I've seen plenty of sharpies before. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird Brain Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 I don't have any good ones either. I've seen quite a few around here but they never seem to give a good photo opportunity! Here's a couple of the best I have to offer. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobinHood Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 The only time I spotted an accipiter in my yard during the twenty years I have lived here was last Fall. I came back from a birding trip and it was there having lunch on my deck but I had to shoot through a very dirty patio window and screen as it was only about 3m/10ft away. The second photo is more typical, zipping past me at high speed. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
