First to Chare Ends where we found a male <strong>Red-backed Shrike. <\/strong>Also in the dunes at Chare Ends there was a Pied Flycatcher, numerous Lesser Whitethroats and a Tree Pipit. At the Lough there was another Lesser Whitethroat and a Garden Warbler. A walk down the Crooked Lonnen produced nothing out of the ordinary and the Straight Lonnen held at least one Redstart and a Pied Flycatcher. It was then we received news of a possible <strong>Lesser Grey Shrike<\/strong> from the main car park. After a short wait the Shrike perched up on a fence before gradually moving further away. After a bite to eat we decided to have a look in the Vicar&#8217;s Garden, where we found an <strong>Icterine Warbler<\/strong>. Both Pied and Spotted Flycatchers were also present in the garden. We then got a text to say the Rustic Bunting had been seen again at the Snook. Despite thoroughly searching the area where it had last been seen we only found a Tree Pipit and a pair of <strong>Red-backed Shrikes<\/strong> perched together on a hawthorn.<\/p>\n<p>On the way home we called in at Chevington where we heard the <strong>Great Reed Warbler<\/strong> several times and got one short view of it.<\/p>\n<p>T &amp; J Farooqi<\/p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_97931.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1100 alignleft\" alt=\"Red-backed Shrike resize\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_97931-300x187.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_97931-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_97931-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_97931.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98792.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1106 alignleft\" alt=\"Lesser Grey Shrike resize 2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98792-300x187.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98792-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98792-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98792.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_99461.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1107 alignleft\" alt=\"Icterine Warbler resize\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_99461-300x187.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_99461-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_99461-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_99461.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98411.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1108 alignleft\" alt=\"IMG_9841\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98411-300x187.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98411-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98411-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ntbc.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/IMG_98411.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/a>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Promising weather conditions made us head up to Holy Island yesterday.
