Hey everyone-
 
Joe Turner, Leslie Starr, and I looked for the Shrike from around 11:30am to 2:30pm with no success.  As mentioned earlier, there were a LOT of mockingbirds around the drainage pond, maybe the most I've seen concentrated in one spot.  We toured some of the roads in the area of the sighting, but had no luck.  However, there is a lot of really good habitat for this bird to be taking advantage of, so here's hoping it will show up again. Of course, knowing my luck with Shrikes, it probably reappeared minutes after our departure :) .
 
Also, a new set of photos (including my first herp photos) from the Eastern Shore from the last couple of weeks are up at:

Enjoy!
