About These Birds

Épervier minule

The Little Sparrowhawk (<em>Accipiter minullus</em>) is one of the smallest members of the family Accipitridae (Hawks, Eagles & Kites), a compact and agile raptor found across forest habitats of sub-Saharan Africa. It occupies woodland and forest edges where its small size allows it to pursue prey through dense vegetation with great agility. Detailed plumage and behavioral descriptions of this species are limited in the available literature, though its diminutive form is characteristic of small accipiters adapted to swift aerial hunting. …

Weighing about 2,400g with an impressive wingspan of 100.1cm, it is distinguished by its extremely short tail and vivid red facial skin and bill. It soars for hours over vast distances, feeding primarily on carrion and occasionally taking live prey.
