I received the following from Paul Novak of NYSDEC. I have written Michelle Illuminato, requesting more information, and will post anything helpful that I receive.
Good birding! Willie From: Paul Novak [mailto:pgno...@gw.dec.state.ny.us] Sent: Monday, July 09, 2012 9:44 AM To: dannapot...@roadrunner.com Subject: Fwd: Loggerhead Shrike Willie, I received the e-mail below over the weekend. Michelle said she was not able to post her observation to Genesee Birds as she is not a member, but would be fine if you could do so. It would seem likely that this was the same shrike. have you heard of any additional sightings?

Michelle Illuminato" <miche...@nextquestion.org> 7/7/2012 2:35 PM >>> Hello Paul, I spotted a beautiful hovering Loggerhead Shrike near the entrance onto Lake Ontario State Parkway near Ontario Beach Park on Thursday afternoon around 3 pm. It was hovering over something in the tall grass, much like a hummingbird, then tipped down and flew up onto a short tree. I wonder if this is the same one that was seen last month? Michelle M.
