Meet the shrike. This bird of prey impales its prey on thorns or other sharp objects for easier consumption or storage.
A terrifying sight: the shrike is a small but very predatory bird.
It impales its prey—from insects to frogs, small birds (sparrows or tits), and mice—on thorns or spines for consumption, butchering, or storage. In warmer months, the prey is dried, and in winter, it freezes, turning into canned food.
Nicknamed the "butcher bird," it is one of the most bloodthirsty birds of prey.
