Great Grey Shrike, Hatfield Moor







Our first local shrike of the year !  A long walk but well worth it and with excellent directions from Linda we found the area the shrike favoured. Our Tom came with us which was lovely, his very first twitch.  He even had binoculars and watched the bird along with the small crowd. Good to catch up with Richard. The shrike was soon picked up by Karen and it remained distant and extremely active for the couple of hours we were there. So pleased we had worn wellies, up to our ankles in places !
