dc.description.abstractRange shifts and expansions have been recorded in a number of species and it is expected that as climate change proceeds it will result in more species joining this trend. A major concern with these shifts is the suitability of the receiving novel environments, for example, if these areas experience different climatic conditions or prey phenology. One way to evaluate how expanding populations adapt to the environment is through evaluating their breeding patterns. In southern Africa, the Black sparrowhawk (Accipiter melanoleucus) originally existed in Botswana, Mozambique, North Eastern and South Eastern South Africa and Zimbabwe.en_ZA
