WOW!!! o This is a gorgeous picture of your cute (indeed) Shrike, Lisa, with right the background I like the best, smudged but still showing a hint of what's there behind (makes the picture more interesting)!!! A sensational habitat shot to my eyes, girl!!! :clap: :clap:

Lovely to see you around again, btw... it's quite a long time since we saw the last of your Arizonian pics! Cheers, Lisa!

Always good to see an image from you Lisa, and a beauty it is too, great birds. When I was a lad (A long time ago) Red-backed Shrikes used to breed where I lived at that time, and they were also known as Butcher birds for the same reasons you have given. Alas, theres not a sight of one around there now, and they've turned into a quite rare species throughout the whole country.
