near Birling Gap, Sussex
- I was fortunate to twitch an Isabelline Shrike on the south coast this afternoon. I was tipped off by Matt Eade and set off immediately. If I had delayed more than 15 minutes I would have been too late. The bird showed well only for a few minutes shortly after I arrived but then disappeared much to the disappointment of the growing number of birders who turned up later.
- A Dartford Warbler and a Stonechat were delightful asides as we waited for the shrike to turn up.
Lucky me - a "lifer" too!
Thanks Matt!
