As Northern Shrike have started showing up I headed out to Brunswick Point this afternoon. This has always been a fairly reliable spot for me to get photos of them. I was not finding much at first when something different caught my eye.
It was a Band-tailed Pigeon. Something I have not seen or photographed around here in a while. Then while watching a group of mixed sparrows,
… this Bewick’s Wren popped up briefly. Then something flying by got my attention.
Sure enough it was a juvenile Northern Shrike.
