A very tame and obliging juvenile Red Backed Shrike taken at Tidemills near Newhaven -Sussex,never seen such an unafraid bird,stood two feet from it and it wasn't bothered !![]() ![]() at one point it lived up to it's nickname "butcher bird" by impaling a Devil Coachman Beetle on a thorn ( it ate it later ) ![]() here it's looking for a suitable thorn for the unfortunate insect ![]() ![]() here it's just about to regurgitate a pellet ![]() a real privilege to observe a wild creature at such close range thanks for looking |

They're super photos Andy , and i think the RSPB could do well to have a good look at what the bird really looks like . Their site , images and info could do with a good overhall , an update |
