MD Osprey:

I just got a call from Leo Weigant. He is on the shrike that was 
previously reported SE of Chestertown and from what he has been able 
to see he thinks it's about 75-80% that it is a Northern Shrike.

He could see the longish bill with a hook and a white supercilium. It 
was a bit difficult to get the details of the mask to confirm the species.

Directions:

 From US 50, take Rt 213 north.

About 4 miles north of Churchill, turn right onto Union Road.

The road ends in just over a mile; turn left on Leverage Road. That 
road thens turns into Kibler Road and ends at a T.

 From the T, the bird is about 100 yards south, on the west side of 
the road, in a couple of trees there.

Good luck!

Phil
