Sussex RED-BACKED SHRIKE present for second day

The male RED-BACKED SHRIKE was seen again this morning 1100hrs by Mike Tucker at Cissbury Ring on the lower slope near the northern car park, frequenting the open scrub 150-200 m east of the car park at approximately map reference 140084.

I spent an hour searching the area without any further sightings although it was very windy in the area (Bernie Forbes).
