Eurasian Sparrowhawk

Eurasian Sparrowhawk (ENG) / Soko (SRB).

This bird has been so fascinating to me. Especially since moving to the Americas, and how not only we have our peculiar differences in cultures, but also vast differences in flora and fauna.

This bird reminds me of home it also reminds me of my father who use to fly a fighter jet named after this exact bird (SOKO J-22 ORAO), back in the days when Yugoslav Air Force was still around.
