  1. swallow shrike

    A swallow shrike is a general term that refers to any species in the bird genus Artamus, commonly found in Australasia, Asia, and the islands of the Indian Ocean. They are characterized by their robust bodies, short legs, powerful bills, and long wings that allow them rapid flight. They are often recognized by their smooth, glossy feathers, usually in shades of white, grey or black. They are called "swallow shrikes" due to their feeding habits, as they catch prey mid-flight much like swallows, but are related to shrikes.
