Once again, it was cloudy and the gray clouds behind the shrike make this look like a back-lit image but really it is just the color of the sky mixed with a higher ISO than normal. I did feel fortunate to finally get a loggerhead shrike on a clean perch though. 8 Mile Road, Galveston, Texas, January 2013

Una vez más, estaba nublado y las nubes grises del fondo detrás de este alcaudón hacen que el sujeto parezca estar a contraluz, pero no es así. De hecho, el sol estaba a mi espalda. Es un resultado del color del cielo junto con una ISO más alta que lo normal. Sin embargo, me sentía afortunado de haber logrado una pose de un alcaudón verdugo en una percha limpia. 8 Mile Road, Galveston, Texas, enero 2013

Perched on a fence, this loggerhead shrike was swooping down on unsuspecting insects that it would sometimes impale on the barbed wire. Midlothian, Texas, January 2010

The hawk of the songbird world; This is a Loggerhead Shrike that I photographed here in my hometown of Midlothian, Texas. It is a year round resident, but I seem to see more of them during the winter months. December 29, 2007.
