The BF and I went on a short trip to Paris recently. I like to make sure I visit Paris at least once a year. There is something that I find so inspiring about Paris. It's so close, yet so different to London. We always...

Have you seen this gorgeous fella. He's a Sparrowhawk, not the usual type of sparrowhawk. It's what a sparrowhawk might look like if a sparrow mated with a Hawk (not likely to happen but you never know). I was interested to know what it would...
