Good find. We looked for it as went out after you (?) showed it to us in the Tower Hide. Didn't find it. Nice bird.

Thanks, I just saw it by chance. BTW, mine is not a good photo, but I still like to share with others, so that they know what to look for and take a better photo. Also I hope others may share with us what they saw, so that we can look for them too.

It looks like a 1stY Brown Skrike to me.

And to me. It would also be very early for a Bull-headed Shrike.

KK,
Good capture!

I agree that this is a first year Brown Strike. Bull-headed would have shorter ball-shaped bill. This bird has rather a longer bill for me.

Thanks for correcting me. Still lots to learn
