GREAT GREY SHRIKE at Norton Green

I received a text at 3:37 saying that there was a GREAT GREY SHRIKE at Norton Green, Stevenage, so I went up straight away, and found it at about 3:50, perched up in a small tree in the scrub in the middle of the site. I was joined by Richard Pople, and we watched it for a few minutes before it flew off, and appeared to land behind the travellers' site, but I couldn't relocate it as it became dark. It probably went to roost there, and hopefully will stick around (David Booth)
