Hi folks,
I saw the shrike today. It got chased off by a
crow after only about 45 viewing seconds - just
enough time to stop the car, reach in back for
the camera, point, and curse loudly. I believe
it was a Loggerhead, as Wilbur says.
I found the several hundred Horned Larks, along
with only 2 Pipits south of the corner of Cap
Stine Road and South something-or-other road.
Didn't see any Snow Buntings or Longspurs. Are
they all mixed together? Or did the weather
change blow away my lifebird?
I was surprised at the number of GB Herons at
Lily Pons - at least 10, and I only scouted about
15 of the ponds.
Good birding,
Charlie
