The long drive from Glasgow airport to my family home in Cambridgeshire was broken with a few hours spent at Spurn to see a juv
Masked Shrike (only Britain's third record). The bird showed well, hunting along a hedgerow filled with ripe haws, though it was a little distant for the camera.

I also had a bit of time to watch a
Jack Snipe at close range on the Canal Scrape, had a
Peregrine go up the Point and saw a newly found
Richard's Pipit. I also managed to see both
Stoat (crossing the road near Patrington) and
Weasel (crossing the road at The Warren) which was an unexpected bonus.
