A visit to see the local Butcher

I managed to get a pass out this afternoon so I made a quick trip out to Acaster Airfield where a Great Grey Shrike had been discovered a couple of days ago wintering in the area, I joined Mark who was already there and had been watching it earlier but he had lost sight of it however another birder came along and told us it was showing a bit further back along the road, we moved down there and got some reasonable views of it before it eventually flitted off over a hedge and we lost it to view again, nice local bird.
