Crimson-Breasted Shrike / Rotbachwürger (Sophienhof, Namibia) #birdoftheday #Black&Red

A shrike with shiny plumage, sitting on a piece of wood. It is black with a bright red breast and belly. As long the wings, it dhows a narrow white stripe.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BestBeaks. The beak of the #NorthernShrike is not dramatically large or colourful. However, that little hook gives this songbird an edge in its hunting, allowing it to function somewhat like a tiny bird of prey.

A Northern Shrike, a greyish-white songbird with a black eye mask and a distinctive beak with a little hook on the end, perches on a twig and poses somewhat fluffily against a deep blue sky.

Red-backed Shrike (Lanius collurio) is the only shrike about right now. The summer Lesser Grays have left and the winter Great Grays haven't arrived yet, although they should start showing up at the end of this month. #BirdingHungary #shrikes #birding #birds

Speaking of hanging out on stone or brick, this Red-backed Shrike (Lanius collurio) found a nice, comfortable perch to warm up in the morning sun. 😀 #BirdingHungary #shrikes
