95 : Great Grey Shrike


Great Grey Shrike - Lanius exubiter

Just celebrating this bird with a brie, rocket and Mrs Balls Peach Chutney sandwich. Sandwich comes a close second. I do like shrikes - they perform for an audience. Car got dumped and I went into sneeking mode on a roadside patch of wasteland as Pakistani lorry drivers stared in amazement. What is this mad Inglezi doing ? Earning my sandwich.



The last time I saw one of these I was cameraless. Someone left the cake out in the rain. Not today. In the bag - number 95 come on down.
