Title: Northern Shrike at Downsview Park
Post by: Flyingbass on January 15, 2014, 05:05:48 PM

I saw a Northern Shrike today at Downsview Park in the forest next to the circuit path.  This was a first for me, very exciting!

Yeah I saw it too...on Sunday.  Gave me some great looks and I took a few pics but due to poor lighting, it's a bit granulated.

It has been a good two days. Today I saw a Peregrine falcon and a large number of red tailed hawks!
