Midweek Special 29th October

A Great Grey shrike has spent a couple of days with us this week and may still be around. They do roam over large territories and so could still be on the moor. It favoured July's Meadow and hunted from the hedge surrounding the field. A great find by Tezzer.

Whilst looking for it yesterday we had a flyover Crossbill that flew up into Sling Copse only the third I have seen on Otmoor. The Shrike and the Crossbill take the year list up to one hundred and fifty.
