Halling marsh,August 14th.

During the afternoon I decided to go to the marshes at Halling.Walking along the river path I met several other bird-watchers who informed me they had been watching a immature Red-backed Shrike.Shortly after it appeared in its favourite Hawthorn and very nice it was too.A Red-backed Shrike was present in the same place and time of the year in 2008.Other birds seen were-8 Linnet,2 Yellowhammer,10 Meadow Pipit and 3 Little Egrets.A Buzzard which was being mobbed by a Sparrowhawk was seen above the Downs across the river at Wouldham.
