Burmese Shrike is a colourful member of the Laniidae, with a reddish back and dark grey crown grading into a black mask. It has a wide range in Southeast Asia, and is found in varied habitats. Its inclusion in the passerines (songbirds) — despite a more predatory feeding ecology than most others birds in that large group — is reinforced by musical vocalizations. This individual was seen in northwestern Thailand, near the border with the country I personally still prefer to refer to as Burma (which obviously gives the common name of this species).
