Wild spar had a couple of half-hearted stoops at my spar the other day when she was perched in a tree.

flying a female pere/pre and a female spar tried it on? she gave it a good run for its cheek and put her in a mood? next day she took a stunning rook.

A Guy I Know ..who Is A Very Well Known Falconer Had His Merlin Killed By A Spar A Couple Of Years Back
A Spar had a go at our FHH last Christmas day. I saw it perch in the tree whilst doing the washing up. Ran outside just as it stooped to the Harris. When it saw me it pulled up and away.

Hi Roy, my male kestrel were attacked when out on his block, by a wild male kestrel, probably over territory, they had a good old rough and tumble but as i got to them my male had the wild kes pinned down, luckily they were both unharmed.
