WOW! Excellent capture of this handsome Shrike Graham, it shows well against the light BG. Lucky you my friend. Tfs.
 
Looks like Grey on a grey day here Mac...Two super captures mate.
 
Despite the poor light you managed a brilliant shot! An excellent photo of this bird, well done!!
 
Two super shots Graham. Well exposed on this one mate. It's always difficult against a light background. TFS
