[SBB] Blue Grosbeak & Loggerhead Shrike



This morning at about 8:30, the male BLUE GROSBEAK was singing from the 
top of the lowest sycamore in the gulch at Ed Levin Park. I went 
farther up the trail looking for Grasshopper Sparrows and had no joy. 
However, I got another great look at the Grosbeak on my way down about 
10:15.
Interesting to see was a pair of LOGGERHEAD SHRIKE on the barbed wire 
fence next to the road on the way around the lake. They were finishing 
breakfast and were storing the remains - a bit of brownish gray fur, a 
tail and some trailing entrails, on one of the barbs of the fence. The 
one bird kept shifting and poking trying to get it more firmly stabbed 
on the fence - behavior read about but not actually seen before.
