Benacre Shrike

On Sunday 11th September, a day after I had driven back from Wales, after a very welcome call from Jane F I had great difficulty parking but decided to park in the inland "Beach" car park and walked the mile and a half walk first to the Kessingland Sluice, I met David B and his wife coming back and we had a brief chat before I joined first Jane & Paul F and Clive. We saw a Wheatear here. later James B overlooking the corner section we soon saw the fine immature Red- backed Shrike perched on top of a Hawthorn and other bushes but it was fairly distant. Being by the bushes at the rear of the Sluice scrub corner. A message saying Jake G had an Osprey flying north from benacre and James B picked it up and we saw it, a fine Osprey circling fairly distantly before it flew , Jake G and I think Ben M arrived as did Dick and I made my exit. I was walking past by the caravan park. Along Kessingland levels bushes, I saw a male Stonechat and a female Reed Bunting,I received another tweet saying 2 Ravens were circling the Shrike and heading north-east exactly where I was! So I ran made up the sandy dunes to a notable high point and saw the pair of Ravens circling and then they flew south and west. They are certainly on my Benacre list but not quite in Lizardland!
