  1. I think Lanius cristatus. Note that it has a few sub species so when looking for images they may be somewhat variable. Posted 3 years ago
    1. Yes, I think this is the right direction! See this:

      It may be a female or juvenile.
      Many thanks for the tip! :-)

The brown shrike is a bird in the shrike family that is found mainly in Asia. It is closely related to the red-backed shrike and isabelline shrike . Like most other shrikes, it has a distinctive black "bandit-mask" through the eye. and is found mainly in open scrub habitats, where it perches on the tops of thorny bushes in search of prey.
