An adult N. Shrike was working the field on the east side of Meadowbrook Rd
across from the intersection of Pleasant Valley Rd in W. Brattleboro this
morning and this afternoon. It was teeing up in the small trees/bushes
scattered throughout the field, then swooping down to the snow for a few
seconds (hunting voles?), before teeing up again on a new perch. This is the
first N. Shrike I've seen this year in Southern VT.
