Nice! Strikes were once common here in Iowa, as well. They are seen much less these days as we transform every square inch of ag ground into weedless, sterile fields of corn and soybeans. It's a shame.

It is a shame. The world feels like a wilder place with a healthy population of shrikes!

We had these in Tarrant county Tx. A surprising diversity of quarry taken. Thanks for writing these. Happy New Year
