Sneaky Shrike

News broke again on a Sunday morning of a Woodchat Shrike in Trow Quarry, the site is possibly one of the most famous place in the North of England now for birders. This was a cracking adult bird and it showed fairly well for me on at least 4 occasions, mostly obscured but did have a good view of the bird out in the open. All in all I am a happy chppy to see this stunning bird.

I had a longer video but some Yorkshire birders head sadly got in the way so decided I would upload this short video instead. Please view in HD, if unsure how to do this CLICK HERE.
