Media notes
This accipiter has been discussed on Birdforum, some feel it is a Frances's Sparrowhawk but to me it looks very much like.....the Madagascar Sparrowhawks I saw later this month and next. It is dark grey, has a distinct head, the throat pattern is indistinct and it is dark barred below. The legs look thick but I have a shot of Mad Sparrowhawk where one leg looks thin and the other thick!The bird was sat in dense forest and was quite obliging. Elevation: 14 m. Date added to IBC: June 21, 2016.
