Had a probable Loggerhead Shrike this morning in Sherburne NWR along =
Highway 3 (about one mile west past the first CR 70 intersection, along =
the south side of the road in a very open area).

"Probable" because:  1) Bins look only from 50-60 yards, as I set up the =
scope, it vamoosed; and 2) this would be my first in 11 years of birding =
(unusual bird in WI, my former stomping grounds).

The mask was larger than I'm used to seeing, noted the white area under =
the cheek, and the bird "looked different" than the dozens of Northerns =
I've seen over the years.  However, would not swear to this ID in a =
court of law.

Good birding!
