I heard today that there was a red backed shrike locally, but I could not go anywhere till 5.30pm. Luckily my friend Dave was available to show me where it was and took me to see it. The light was awful at 6.45pm when it eventually showed for us, the sort of conditions where having a camera with the High ISO/low noise capability of my K-5 comes in handy. Sadly my K-5 is having it’s lens button repaired at the mo, so I only had my k20d! (please note Bowers Marsh is not yet open top the public)
I did manage a few shots that were OK though in the end.
