    A Couple Small Guys... Birds

    Loggerhead Shrike, also know as the Butcher Bird. This bird has an interesting habit of impaling it's prey upon a sharp object ( such as a barbed wire fence or long thorn ) to hold it while it eats.

    Hi Joe,

    All gorgeous. My favourite being the Eastern Pheobe for the gorgeous background and the curved branch (aside from the bird)...

    Indeed the beautiful loggerhead shrike seem to be in a bit of a mood... (ie; it's expression matches your story)

    Hello Bobo, thank you for viewing and commenting. The shrike is a tough little bird, he does seem to have an attitude.
