Red- backed Shrike at Kessingland Dunes
On Thursday 23rd May 2019, I walked down to the Kessingland Dunes and the inland area just beyond the caravan site, I saw Rene who gave me excellent directions for the Shrike, walking along the border of the site and going across to a bush, I joined Josh and another birder, in seeing the fine male Red- backed Shrike seen in amazingly singing but nearly always slightly obscured in the bush, it did pop out briefly in full view but then dived into the bush again. Neville L and Tony B arrived and we enjoyed seeing the bird catch the odd bee and singing again before the report of a Wood Warbler at Gunton Hall had us dashing back home. No sight or sound of the warbler but 2 Grey Wagtails seen and a fine male bird seen perched on a pole in the north east corner of the perimeter of the Tesco complex.
