Backyard and Beyond 
The House Sparrow is an ideal size and lacks some of the armament the Monks tote. Starling is a little more risky than the sparrow, but still on the menu. Have you witnessed a kestrel capturing a Monk? I would be surprised unless the supply of sparrows and starlings dried up. Then, even pigeon is fair game.
