Is the bird wearing any jesses, anklets or any transmitter?

Yes, it was (eventually) captured by the RSPCA, took them over a day to come out the bird which was a sparrowhawk by the way was left overnight in the shop and was very distressed, happy ending though glad it escaped.

I reckon it was after the pigeons at moorfoot and it misjudged and ended up in there poor thing.

I was very disappointed in the RSPB response when I phoned them his response was 'what do you want me to do about it I'm based in Essex'
