Sparrow hawk strikes again . .

Heard some squawking in the garden - went into garden just in time to see the sparrow hawk catch another sparrow. I disturbed him (assuming it was a him) at which point he flew off with the little sparrow in his claws.
It's upsetting but, as the birdseed man in the market said, the sparrow hawk also has to eat . . . .
In other words - it's nature - tooth and claw . . .
