Great Grey Shrike - Ty Rhyg

After spending 3hours at Pantmaenog.... visit to Ty Rhyg turned-up the/a Great Grey Shrike north of the track initially around SN056299 at 3.45pm. Dropping frequently to the ground from tall conifers. Crow shadowing it as it moved over towards the pond. Continued its visits to ground, often spending quite sometime out of sight. Watched until heavy downpour sent me looking for shelter. Once rain had passed no sign, though its buddy was calling from the area where Paddy does his ringing, had a good look here but no further sign at 4.30pm.

Also here lots of Fieldfare in the hawthorns in the cleared area at the farside - 100+.
