27th August 2023: Mill Hill, Red-backed Shrike

The birding grapevine proved useful today when news came through of a juvenile Red-backed Shrike up at Mill Hill nature reserve. We quickly headed up there, where several other local birders were already on site. The bird was feeding in a large area of scrub, showing well, but not exceptionally close views. He was quite mobile, progressing through the scrub, but this was a good bird to find within our local area.
