Checked out this site this morning c1020-1100. No sign of the shrike when I was there but spoke to another birder who had seen the bird Sunday. Only birds of note were 3 red kite and 1 buzzard. On drive home further 2 red kites ove Newton Bar (ie turnoff to Newton from the A52 - cTF0436). Checked out the Folkingham site (where shrike in winter 11-12 & only 6km from this site) but nothing there either. Vin |

Out of interest it appears that this Shrike is still around. On BirdGuides go to latest UK/Irish photos and for today (10th Jan 2014) there are three photos by Bob Pacey. Thought folk in the south of the county might like to know. Cheers Grahame |
