IMG_6968 Red-backed shrike.jpg (Lanius collurio)

I'd seen Red-backed Shrikes in Europe but this was my first one in the UK. It was located at St Mary's Bay in Kent for several days and I was so glad I went to see it.
Habitat
It remained fairly close to the same area for several days, at the far end of a golf course on rough grassland with a few interspersed shrubs.
