|
Fiscal Flycatcher
Sigelus silens
Native Range: Africa
Notes:
superficially similar to shrikes (Laniidae), but in an entirely different taxonomic family (Muscicapidae); this species bears an especially close resemblance to the sympatrically distributed Common Fiscal, which is indeed a true shrike.
