April 2018 Great Grey Shrike new diet opportunities

The more I watch the local Great Grey Shrike the more my admiration grows.  As bees are now emerging today it seems to be relishing the new opportunity.  I saw it catch about five in about an hour.  They have such a broad diet and I have seen images of them with : Voles, Lizards, birds and insects.  This really is a brilliant bird.

It will not be here much longer this year as it will soon leave for its breeding ground.
