Is it a bull-headed, brown or other shirke? Many thanks.

i think it is a Bull-headed Shrike, with the chestnut head and the "ball-shaped" bill.

Dear Tak Ming

Should be thankful if you would kindly tell whether it is the Sek Kong catchment area, Sek Kong lullah (ie, Airfield Road) or elsewhere. Please specify so that I can find the bird.

tsheunglai,
The location that ctakming has provided is detail enough. If you would like to know the exact location, please use the P.M. function and contact the birder/photographer directly.
Thank you!

Many thanks to Cyrus. It is difficult for me to distinguish different juvenile shrikes especially with my poor gear.
