A couple of snaps of yesterday's Woodchat Shrike and today's #Wryneck.
Not a bad couple of day's birding!

Thanks to a good birding friend, Rob, who provided detailed location info., three of us headed to Dorset to see an unusual visitor to the UK - a Woodchat Shrike. A stiff climb up the coastal path from #Seatown #Dorset and there it was! Only he second time I've seen one in the UK. We watched it for well over an hour - sitting, hunting (mostly bees I think) and flying about.
