🦤 Tornskaderne er virkelig noget for sig. De er smukke og karakteristiske, men samtidig er de også barbariske og intelligente. Herhjemme er det Stor- og Rødrygget tornskade der er mest almindelig, men familien (Laniidae) er fyldt med smukke udgaver! God weekend til alle ✌🏼🍂☀️

🇭🇹 RICOT A.K.A. “SHRIKE” 🇭🇹
The Haitian mercenary whose nickname comes from the laniidae family of birds, sometimes called “butcherbirds” for their rather brutal behavior. Shrike has hyperacute senses which make him the ideal hunter.

All 33 shrike species trace their roots to Africa ~8 million years ago, when C4 grasses exploded across the continent. Oh, and Magpie Shrikes? Just big Lanius. The first complete shrike phylogeny reveals Laniidae is basically one giant genus. doi.org/10.1111/zsc.... #2026MMM #RIP

White eyed Vireos are so cute 🥺

They're easily mistaken for Warblers but the Vireo family are actually more related to Shrikes (Laniidae) and Corvids aka crows/jays! 🐦

Non, la PGE a sa propre famille, les Laniidae (du latin lanius, le boucher). Quant aux yeux des gens, ils n'ont qu'à pas exposer des tissus mous au bec de braves corvidés

Fascinating that Australian butcherbirds are in a different superfamily (Malaconotoidea > Artamidae) than the loggerhead shrike (Corvoidea > Laniidae), but share similar approaches to life and the same team colours:
