Media notes
Adult. Remarks: Halfway up the track there is a small pond, where on the opposite side this Small Sparrowhawk silently flew in and perched on a branch; brightly exposed against the darkness of the forest. After some minutes of scanning the area, it silently swooped down in an attempt to take prey at the edge of the pond. This was repeated several time, each time without success. This silent and elegantly performed swooping to the ground was exactly how it is described in Coates/Bishop's Guide to the Birds of Wallacea. - SvdM. Date added to OBI: September 28, 2013.
