Re: [cobirds] Shrike Strikes

Years ago I had a similar experience as Steve when a Northern Shrike came to my yard.  He sat in a tree and dove under my deck and came out with a mouse.  2x.

Several Novembers ago I had a Northern Shrike first-year bird in my backyard in NW Colorado Springs. It sat on my fence looking around for a long time (and I got several good pictures) when it suddenly dove under my deck, came out with a junco in its beak, and flew off. That was pretty cool!
