The sparrow hawk, also known as the American Kestrel Falcon, (it's a falcon) has predators consisting of great-horned owls, red-tailed hawks, and other bigger birds, even crows and ravens. Some land mammals have been known to attack falcons, such as raccoons, bobcats, coyotes, and more.

Both male and female Sparrow hawks will hunt for small birds such as tits, finches and sparrows. However the female sparrow hawk is larger in size and will prey on larger birds such as black birds, thrushes, starlings and pigeons. Small mammals such as mice and voles will also be taken and they have been known to eat carrion.
