Cross Inn Great Grey Shrike

Unbelievable! I have been in the woods most weekends scanning the area in question without success. Today, Christine and I had been for a long circular walk ending with the Cross Inn woods. I barely looked across the clearing because we were very aware that a local dog who tends to attack our two was on its way. As I met Simon, the alsatian headed towards us and we had a few minutes fun and games separating the dogs! In all the kerfuffle I failed to look across the clearing. Having regained our composure the 5 willow tits showed well.
