I'm not scared of birds but had no way of getting at the bird (sparrow by now had been killed by the sparrowhawk) so I called up my friend who keeps birds and she came over with a net and gauntlet gloves and managed to ease the bird out from where it had wedged itself, it was fine and flew off none the worse for wear, leaving its' dinner behind! Luckily there were no customers in the shop and I closed up until we'd got it out as I didn't want to scare it too much.
