This shrike is indeed a Hill lab bird! You were correct on the band combo- two
oranges on the left leg and dark green over metal on her right. The shrike is a
female after hatch year bird that was banded on December 26th, 2021 in the
field behind the parking lot where you found her.
Thanks for sharing your sighting with us!

Hi Cole,
Reporting the bird to this list is good, but even better is to report it to the
US Bird Banding Lab, which oversees all bird banding in the US. You can report
either a metal band, if you're lucky enough to get the number, or you can
report a color-banded bird such as this one. The URL is

Hello Cole,
Thank you for the sighting! I've included the Loggerhead Shrike Working here -
it is likely a shrike banded by Chris Hill, in SC. Here's hoping we can provide
some feedback!

Subject: Banded shrike sighting
Amy,
My name is Cole Tiemann, and I am a birder who spotted a banded Loggerhead
Shrike yesterday. I went on the website and I’m unsure who to report the band
to, so please let me know if I should be emailing someone else or just
reporting the bird through the Bird Banding Lab.
The shrike I spotted yesterday was at Lake Busbee in Conway, South Carolina,
specifically in the parking lot perched on telephone wires (so I have
suspicions that it was captured and banded nearby). Specifically, the
coordinates are 33.828604, -79.057811. I have attached a photo of the bird,
and sadly this is the only angle I have before it flew off. It appears that
there are two orange bands on the left leg and a
Green band over a silver band on the right leg, but honestly the right leg is
really hard to make out. The uncropped photo may be easier to zoom in and see.
Please let me know if you want any more details and I appreciate the help!
Thank you,
Cole Tiemann
