Seaside Shrike

An old friend from work was staying in Axminster for the weekend so we agreed to meet halfway-ish in Weymouth this morning. Just after we arrived a Red-backed Shrike was found and we soon caught up with it. There are some great pictures of this bird around, but mine aren't among them - to call this a record shot is an insult to record shots! Bearded Tits and Yellow Wagtails were also seen and heard on the reserve, along with a small selection of waders - 2 Common Sandpiper, Dunlin, Greenshank, Redshank, Black-tailed Godwit and Lapwing.
