Taxidermy Red-backed Shrike
SOLD
Latin: Lanius Collurio
Description: Modern taxidermy specimen of a Red-backed Shrike mounted in a naturalistic pose on piece of faux driftwood.
Like other shrikes it hunts from prominent perches, and impales corpses on thorns or barbed wire as a "larder." This practice has earned it the nickname of "butcher bird."
