This is the kind of bird farmers facing a mouse plague would love to have around! I'm in Australia, not sure if there's an Australian variant of this bird, but we sure could use a bird that knows how to keep mouse and rat populations in check! 😊👍🐁

[@user-ku9bu1xt4f]

Сорокопу́ты (лат. Lanius, от lanius «мясник», «палач», «приносящий жертву») - наиболее многочисленный род птиц семейства сорокопутовых. Большинство видов распространены в Евразии и Африке. Серый сорокопут гнездится в северном полушарии по обе стороны Атлантики, американский жулан обитает исключительно в Северной Америке. В Южной Америке и Австралии род не представлен. На территории России гнездится 9 видов - японский, тигровый, красноголовый, чернолобый, серый и клинохвостый сорокопуты, рыжехвостый, обыкновенный и сибирский жуланы. Как и другие представители семейства, это небольшого размера птицы плотного телосложения, ведущие хищнический образ жизни.

I mean there's much more animals that eat mice and rats. There's are raptors, snakes and a few lizards.

[@michaelsimko7694]

The legendary Butcher Bird is an amazing one to observe. Songbirds with a raptor-like attitude and appetite. Most Shrikes look and sound a lot like the Northern Mockingbird.

I'm raising a pigeon on my own for the last 2 weeks, she's 4 weeks old now. Hats off to that little bird because I'm finding it hard to raise just 1 bird. Im feeding her baby cereal as I was terrified I'd feed her the wrong thing and there these little things are scoffing down raw dead mouse. I need to relax. Oh here she's on now looking for more food, then bath time 😊 🕊️💕 💕

[@willgraham8878]

Baby pigeons typically eat pigeon milk regurgitated by the mother. Its a very specialized food. I'm not sure about baby cereal! Each species of birds have their own unique diets. Shrikes are Carnivores so need that kind of food.

[@revertedakhi]

What amazed me more on this video is that this little bird is able to raise 6 chicks while eagles despite their enormous size is struggling to raise 2 chicks at the same time. So I congratulate mommy bird for this good job!

[@emerick807]

yup eagles chicks may need more foods to survive that's probably why. I don't think the eagle is any dumber than this bird so there's probably a reason why it struggling to feed his owns !?

[@hollyj7090]

@@emerick807 ...nature has a lot to offer . ...do not limit yourself by seeing it ....as dumb and dumber ! 😼

That is actually one of the reasons.As the eagle chick gets bigger the amount of food it needs is enormous. The mother eagle struggles to feed two, six would be impossible.

[@exessex3522]

Shrikes are passerines or perching birds like thrushes, swallows and starlings and many, many other species. They're an example of convergent evolution with birds of prey. They found a niche and evolved into it. They've a long way to go on the hooked beak and even further on the talons.

Very interesting how they pick up the poop as it comes out of the chicks to keep the nest clean. Or at least that's what it looks.

[@jordendeden9857]

I believe another reason is also to avoid attracting its natural predators like snakes, squirrels etc.

[@goofygoober5270]

bird poop of smaller species is often liquidy and white. the parent probably picked up a feather.

[@jordendeden9857]

There are some species of birds like house sparrows that will let their chick's droppings fall to the floor and then there are others like the California Bluebird (smaller species compared to the Grey shrike) that will literally pick up the encased droppings , fly them to a nearby tree and smear them on its branches. I have seen this first hand as I have two pairs of bluebirds nesting on my property at the moment.
