Mikepércs: Shrikes IV.

It was a week ago when I took shots of the shrike family, I was wondering what has changed since. Early in the morning I was already sitting out in the hide and waiting for their appearence. However nothing happened for long. Sometimes I could hear their voice but not from nearby. It's impossible that they won't settle at all on the landing branch! Of course it is! After 7 the youngs landed on the branch, then the feeding took place:

Red-backed Shrikes

Young Red-backed Shrikes

The female settled for a short time as well:

Red-backed Shrike (female)

The youngs hunted more and more by themselves, they appeared on the landing branch with different kind of insects:

Red-backed Shrike (male)
