Have put off going for this shrike for a few days due to the monsoon weather we are having at the moment and me decorating the living room. After half an hour, I was wishing I hadn't started ! But, job done and brushes put away for a few years ! The rain was relentless on our journey with fields under water....is it really summer? The shrike was distant when we arrived, and seemed to move further away along the fence line until disappearing only to turn up on the fence infront of us. The rain did stop for a couple of hours but the heavens opened yet again as soon as we got back to the car...lucky ! Excellent views and a new UK bird added to Karen's list which now stands at 410.
