A87A7570 Gt grey shrike
Fan Bay.
I went to South Foreland today to mainly chat about the brilliant performance by England at the W/E. After a while we had a stroll over Lighthouse Down (nothing there) then decided to wander over to Fan Bay where we found a juvenile great grey shrike hunting.
After a while I tried to get a bit closer but was having no real luck as it kept chasing mippits about when suddenly it landed quite close.
Quite pleasing really!
It then flew down into Fan Bay then back up to the fence line on the north side of the hollow.
A number of dog walkers/runners and general tourists then walked along the path and that was the last I saw of it though as I went back towards South Foreland I met some local birders who had seen going north.
