A Northern Shrike was actively feeding at Sam Smith Park yesterday.  He never stayed on a perch for more than a couple of minutes.  This heavily cropped photo is the best view I got:

I agree.  Awesome you got to watch him and capture a photo too (heavily cropped or not).

A birth certificate shows we were born.  A death certificate shows we died.  Pictures show we live.

Great sighting and great photo (even though cropped) some of the best shots are heavily cropped!

I myself, of course am a cropoholic! LOL
