They used to breed where I was born, but its a lot of years since I've seen one Duha, lucky you...Super capture my long-legged Lovely.
 
I don't know what this guy has to be looking so grumpy about. You've caught him in such beautiful, golden, leaf-filtered light. He ought to be smiling for the camera ;)
Maybe he's grumbling about the food situation. Too few insects in your garden?

The adults seem to have left us too, but at least we still have juveniles around! Great capture of this handsome fella Doux!

Aw! I'm sorry they all left Duha! At least you have this gorgeous image to keep looking back on g/f! An awesome image.

Well at least you had them in the garden Doux.... which is more than I have had!! Isn't it frustrating when birds turn up for just 1 day!!! "Ratbags" I call them when they do that.... I've just had two.. A Great Tit and a Song Thrush!! Maybe they'll be back.

At least you got a lovely picture of this one my friend. Very nicely done girl!
 
I am amazed at all the various shrikes, this one is so lovely doux. Excellent as usual my friend.
