Lesser grey Shrike + Quail sighting.

The three of us set off to Hazlewood Common in Suffolk in search of the Common Quail.
We are walking down the track just before 7 am & we hear the Quail give a short burst from behind us, we are just after the cross road by the iron gate.
The bird calls again this time for longer & then we get a good flight view as it flies low & then goes over the hedge row & lands in the pea field.
As we walk back to the car we hear the Quail a few times but no more sightings.
Kessingland next up in search of a Woodchat Shrike that's been around for a couple of days.
We walk the top trail first without any luck & decide we need to be walking down on the beach.
We walk a long way up the beach & spend a lot of time searching but on a dull morning we are out of luck so off we go to Horsey in Norfolk to look for a Lesser grey Shrike.
After  we park the car at the top of Nelsons head track, the rain arrives & we get a bit wet as we take the long walk down to the green shed just before the beach.
It is not nice weather wise now but we shelter by the shed & hang about for an hour before we get lucky when we spot the Shrike perched on a post behind the shed before it flies up to the bushes 100 yards back up the track.
Brian manages to keep it in sight so we are able to get some other people onto it & we get another good view ourselves. So 2 out of 3 birds that we set out to get so not a bad day even if it meant getting a bit wet & walking a bit further than we really wanted too.
