First Birds of 2013

Although it has been a while since I have posted on my blog, it is never far from my mind. Viewing friends posts and blogs always is very inspirational for me and I feel that a little 'reset' was beneficial.   Some images of the first birds of 2013 are not especially new to me, but I was extremely happy to get a  Loggerhead Shrike, which is a lifer for me :)
