Masked Shrike
Lanius nubicus

(Above) Various locations, Doha, Qatar, 21 January 2013 (EOS 7D, 300mm f2.8 + 2x Extender)

From left to right:

1. Male - West of Oryx Roundabout, Khalifa Street
2. Female - South West of Theatre Roundabout, Mohammed Bin Thani Street
3. Male - Rumeilah Park, Corniche

Following Friday's out of season individuals three days ago (the first ever outside the traditional March-October period), these are the third, fourth and fifth out of season records. A rare mini winter invasion, or simply overlooked in winter previously?
