Been given a stuffed bird but not sure what it is. I'm thinking sparrowhawk but may be completely wrong..

Need something to scale.
Have you got a spare vole?
Or a football pitch?
I'd say yes the stripes are quite distinctive on the wings and tail.
Edit - @ Rustyspanner - Wales?
DBL EDIT - WhoTF gave you stuffed bird?
Baby robin seems unlikely in this case
The hand brush is 10" long. No vole, sorry 😉
Or a Blue Whale.
Ooh, or a Routemaster.
I know someone who's got one.
He lives in Wales.
Makes you think, eh?
It doesn't look very well.
Is it a parrot?
female sparrowhawk.
^ Ah, so I was right. Cheers Stoner 🙂
Stoner +1, didn't know the sex though!
An ex-female sparrowhawk
Males look way cooler though 🙂
Bolder colour.

Sure it's not a hen harrier?
Whats that machine in the background ?
Norwegian Blue
Bridgeport 760 in the background..
A creepy looking dead one.
I'd say it's pining for the fiords. Definitely shuffled off this mortal coil. Turn it upside down and it could be pushing up daisies.
That's Dave. TBH, was a bit of a knob and owed me £5. I'll not be seeing that £5 again.
Looks like some kind of machine for reanimating dead birds in the background.
Are you sure it's not alive & thats not an action shot?
He's just resting.
African female sparrowhawk or European female sparrowhawk
African female sparrowhawk or European female sparrowhawk
What's the air speed velocity?
Are you allowed to show a female bird in an action shot?
laden or unladen?
Apparently, the consensus on here is "if she's over thirty, then batsh1t mental"
Sure it's not a hen harrier?
Sorry, I though you said hen carrier.

That is a Lesser Spotted Shitehawk. They are rare nowadays as they keep getting stuffed!
Kes!
Don't know who stuffed that hedgehog behind it but it looks a pretty poor job.
