Great Grey Shrike -- Teifi Marshes

The GGS perched up in front of Kingfisher Hide at 07:09 this am. Sat there being mobbed by Blue Tits.
At 07:20 when the sun rose above the trees, the bird is lost in the direct sunlight , when viewing from the hide.
Otherwise a totally frozen Marshes, but Reed Buntings singing all along the old railway track.

(the GGS at Ty-Rhyg last year was present until 12 April at least)

Jon G. saw the shrike at c10:30, in front of kingfisher hide.
