A distant Shrike and other Brex goodies!

I'm giving a bird talk in Norwich tonight, so decided on a morning session in the Brecks with Brian. In the event we logged more interesting birds than we often do in a whole day!

First stop was Cranwich, where a bit of a walk gave us distant views of a Great Grey Shrike, but better ones of numerous singing Woodlarks. As the crowds began to appear, we moved off to Lynford Arboretum for a bash at the Hawfinches. To our delight there were at least four feeding along the 'tunnel' from the five-barred gate, together with some delightful Yellowhammers and Bramblings.

Last stop was Cockley Cley, where the 'distant' theme continued with long-range views of two Goshawks displaying over the distant belt of woodland.
