  1. Hi Dr, that's not a Bay-backed Shrike. That species would show a brown back and orange flanks.
    This is a Great Gray Shrike.

The great grey shrike, northern grey shrike, or northern shrike (Lanius excubitor) is a large songbird species in the shrike family (Laniidae). It forms a superspecies with its parapatric southern relatives, the southern grey shrike (L. meridionalis), the Chinese grey shrike (L. sphenocerus) and the loggerhead shrike (L. ludovicianus).
