It arrived on Tuesday and attempts to 'entice' it down from the roof have so far failed, say staff.
By Katy Prickett and Peter WalkerA hawk which flew into a shop three days ago appears to have taken up residence in its rafters.
The bird of prey flew through the front doors of the Hobbycraft in Chelmsford, Essex, on Tuesday afternoon.Instead, staff are continuing to follow advice from the RSPCA and RSPB, which is to monitor the bird and wait for it to drop from the roof space.
The shop spokesman said staff had contacted a number of animal welfare agencies, including Essex Wildlife Trust and Essex Wildlife Hospital, Raptor Rescue and local independent falconers for "tips for catching the birds". None of them have worked so far, including the attempt by the local expert, who works for a nature reserve near Billericay.
