Woodchat Shrike

Unexpected

We were at a Bee eater hide in central Spain last year when this guy showed up. Unexpected visitor, he not only showed up but posed for few minutes before the Bee eaters drove him off. A Woodhchat Shrike. Shot very shortly after sunrise I kept a little (hopefully not too much) warm color cast. Cropped about 33%, mainly from L. Processed in PR 5, PS. Shot on the edge of a steep slope, the BG is a field about 200 meters away-hence the smooth texture.
