Blakeney Freshmarsh - Red-backed Shrike once more!

After a negative morning at Salthouse and Walsey Hills hoping to find something. I decided to try for the Blakeney Shrike again. I should have gone earlier as it was still showing well but never really giving itself up with prey etc....

Here's the habitat.....


And here's the Red-backed Shrike!




It wasn't always easy to lock onto!


But eventually giving decent views  from all angles....






I'd decided to end the afternoon at Cromer before driving home, some good Gulls had been showing well recently......
