A very showy Masked Shrike was in the middle of town not concerned with the heavy traffic or the 100s of folks passing close by
As it’s Friday, most places are shut including the obs. Mid-morning I headed to town to do some shopping. I grabbed a bite to eat and crossed the road and bumped into a Masked Shrike on a fence at very close range. After spending some time with the shrike, I started birding the area and came away with single Black Redstart, White-throated Kingfisher, Bluethroat, Siberian Stonechat, Reed Warbler, 2 Whitethroat, 2 Hoopoe and 4 Red-throated Pipit. Not bad considering I wasn’t even attending to go birding today.
