A Shrike Summer

September 25, 2026  •  Leave a Comment

The much-admired Long-tailed Shrike that took up home in the hedgerows of the Cotswolds departed a few weeks ago, so here are some images of this beautiful bird. It really was a brilliant experience to see it moult into its adult plumage over the many weeks it was here and spending some quality time with a stunning bird in a wonderful location has rekindled my love of bird photography. So much so that I have decided to upgrade my camera body and make the leap to mirrorless. Once the new body has arrived I'll be eager to test it out so watch this space for some more regular updates.
