Great Grey Shrike
Another day out with Andy and Ken saw us heading for Somerset to look for a Great Grey Shrike at Croydon Hill and after a long walk through the woods we came to some clear fell and after a bit of a wait we then managed to get good views of the bird .
We then went on to Wrafton Pond in North Devon to look for a male Red-Crested Pochard and the bird showed quite well , and seeing that we have dipped them twice already this year we were well pleased to see this one .
