red-backed shrike

It was a drizzly day on St Mary's ( Scilly Isles), but we were out and about looking for rare birds. We found this juvenile red-backed shrike. The bird was some distance away, and it wasn't easy to get a shot with my lens, but it makes it to Blipfoto as a record shot. It was good to see the  bird, as it was the first time I'd seen a red-backed shrike.
