A mottled brown rag tor sits on a bare limb among other bare branches. Its belly is white with brown speckles, and its beak is short and hooked. There is obviously a wind because its feathers are sticking out and up on its back.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay per Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social alt theme is #Grey, birds with Grey feathers on them.

A Loggerhead shrike seems to fit.

A #LoggerheadShrike can kill and carry an animal as massive as itself. It transports large prey in its feet and smaller victims in its beak. #Birds

Loggerhead Shrike. Even the name sounds vicious.

A digital drawing of a loggerhead shrike. It's a small grey, black and white bird with a very sharp, hooked beak. There's spikes in the background of the image, reminiscent of barbed wire.

Loggerhead Shrike (on a wire) (Florida) #BirdOfTheDay

I don't like to take photos of birds on a wire as I much prefer a natural perch. But looking back through old photos I apparently took a few of these back in 2011.

Personal 1st sighting of a Loggerhead Shrike, and a lucky shot of a Tricolor Heron gulping down a minnow. Got to spend quality time watching a Green Heron browsing for lunch also.

Sometimes when you're out surveying for #LoggerheadShrike you actually find some shrikes! In this case, it was two of them carrying food into a very well-hidden nest in this poor excuse for a tree. Food items looked to be #caterpillars.

A shrike perched at the top of a bare tree with a cloudless blue sky background. It is in profile view looking off to the right. It is a soft gray with black edges to the wings and a black eye mask. The tip of his beak is slightly hooked. The butcher bird!
