Sparrowhawk (Spurvehøg / Accipiter nisus)

Sparrowhawk (Spurvehøg / Accipiter nisus) sitting on a sunbed in my backyard.
The sun was shining only 2 minutes before this photo was taken, but unfortunately a heavy fogbank came sneaking in from the sea
just as the hawk landed, so the feather details disappeared.

(see the next picture without postprocessing)
Postprocessing Levels, Defogging USM 20 60 0, FocalBlade sharpen, selective NoiseNinja noise reduction.
