Animal of the week: Grey Shrike


'Fiera' in spanish means wild beast. In honor of this and my love for animals, I'm going to do an animal of the week...as if my blog isn't random enough. I have a things for weird animal quirks.


'Butcher at work: The great grey shrike finds it easier to dismember its prey, a mouse, when it has impaled it on a thorn. Sometimes prey is left on the thorn as larder.'
