What do they do!?
some shrikes are also known as butcherbirds because of the habit, particularly of males, of impaling prey onto plant spines within their territories. These larders have multiple functions, attracting females and serving as food stores.
The god in Hyperion is named after that bird. Great scifi classic.
Netflix and dismembering the prey I fucking impaled earlier?
Oh…
I love how you just casually used SCP wiki as a reference.
I was curious if people would notice, and it seems not everyone did. ;) Maybe someone got to be the daily 5,000 for SCP.
Very metal
Unspeakable horrors.
Thanks to its strong beak, it can tear even the strongest 3-ply toilet paper to shreds if it has been moistened beforehand.
I love a scifi series called the Hyperion Cantos that has a supernatural creature called the Shrike that impales people on a “time tree” to steal their Entropy. It’s not at all adorable though.
(major death of the author tho, and the 3rd/4th book get pretty problematic)
“Oi, cunt!”
There’s birds native to australia that have the same horrific habit and theyre equally adorable. They also have one of my favourite birdsongs
Butcherbirds are insect eaters for the most part, but will also feed on small lizards and other vertebrates. They get their name from their habit of impaling captured prey on a thorn, tree fork, or crevice. This “larder” is used to support the victim while it is being eaten, to store prey for later consumption, or to attract mates.
or to attract mates.
Like a butterfly collection?
