I'm a bird watcher of the non feathered type, but a mate tells me it's a Male Sparrow Hawk.

the company I work for sell live bird food and quite often birds will eat out of our customers hands. 1 customer got a bit of a fright when a sparrow hawk dropped in and snatched the bird she was feeding out of her hand... (lol)
