After reading the previous comments on the Red-backed Shrike, I would say this is a Brown Shrike based on tail length and shape, cream ground colour to the breast and belly and overall shape.

I could be wrong!

Yes, first-winter/juvenile Brown Shrike.  Note also the primary projection which is rather short (compare with the recent RBS).
