The sculpture is by Gueniot (1926) in the #ArtNouveau Église Saint-Jean de Montmatre.

At work in garden this pm, heard a loud thump at garage window.
We were rather startled to see this .. lots of discussion about an identification, but feel it could be a Female Sparrowhawk?
PS - it left, as it entered, by the wide open garage door.
