Just had a Northern shrike come by our house in East Thetford. Perched for a few minutes in a beech by our house before flying off. Luckily, it returned a little bit later and I managed a photo, albeit a bit fuzzy: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/288937/29809117 After I got that shot the bird flew off and hovered in mid air over our field for a few seconds before flying off for good. **************************************************************** To post messages, send e-mail to: [log in to unmask] Set your e-mail application to PLAIN TEXT ONLY to post messages.
