The average number of species visiting each urban


garden over the past five winters. Although not featuring in the top 10, the number of


gardens reporting sparrowhawk has increased seven- fold since the early days of the survey. This lellects the increase in numbers following the banning of toxic


pesticides. Sparrowhawks are a natural feature of the


environment and have co-evolvcd with our small birds over millions of years. Some people may be worried that attracting birds to their gardens makes them easier prey for this predator, but the good done by providing food outweighs any harm, as the spario- whawks would be taking local songbirds m any case.

You could always offer some protection by feeding the small birds in a cage made of wire netting, with a, mesh large enough to admit the tits and finches, but- small enough to exclude the hawks.
