Since shrike species (including loggerhead shrikes) lack talons to grasp prey items like raptors would, they instead resort to impaling their prey on thorns, barbed wire, or other sharp points! This allows them to immobilize their prey for easier consumption. Prey items can include anything from small insects and arthropods (see photos), to even small rodents, amphibians, and reptiles! Shrikes will impale prey items in various locations to eat later on; this occurs especially during the breeding season when food demand is extremely high (imagine 4-7 hungry little mouths to feed\u2026 that requires a lot of preparation!). But male shrikes have also been known to keep a good food cache in their territory to attract a mate, which makes sense considering he\u2019s got to prove that he\u2019s up to the task of being a dad.<\/p>\n<p>On the subject of reptiles as shrike prey\u2026 just last week I was monitoring a pair of loggerhead shrikes to see what they were up to. I observed one bird carrying nesting material to her probable nesting site, and I watched as she delicately placed each stick to her preferred orientation when constructing her nest. In the meantime, her boyfriend was out and about hunting insects, no doubt preparing for the busy days ahead feeding his young. I watched as he landed in a nice open area of prairie smoke (a common wildflower seen here), and he appeared to \u201cwing-flash\u201d repeatedly. \u201cWing-flashing\u201d is a behavior seen in a few different species of birds (ex. Northern mockingbirds are known to do this as well), and it\u2019s essentially when the bird will flick its wings outward to flash their bright white wing patches! It\u2019s been suggested that this may startle any insects hiding in the grass, so the bird can snatch them up for a good meal. However, after watching the bird continually wing-flash for a few minutes, I realized something even MORE cool was happening here\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lflgxk8b-00c7c6a92e9d37f2e6cd0cf6742c3654\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lflgxk8b-00c7c6a92e9d37f2e6cd0cf6742c3654 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lflgxk8b-00c7c6a92e9d37f2e6cd0cf6742c3654 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lflgxk8b-00c7c6a92e9d37f2e6cd0cf6742c3654 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-37513 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-37513 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/IMG_1708-1-scaled-1.jpg' alt='' title='IMG_1708-1-scaled'  height=\"1280\" width=\"2560\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lflgxxhh-b997e10808b285a6335b1d393c64cd14'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em> Shrike carrying away a snake, taken with an iPhone through a scope (screenshots from a video)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lflgyabt-42708ef6bcf6b9cb005ce2fd81498c1c'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>As I watched closely, I noticed the bird was battling a snake! Not just a small one, either\u2026 it was a snake that appeared to be about twice the body length of the bird! Eventually, the battle between shrike and snake came to a close, and the shrike had won. The shrike picked up the snake in his beak, and carried his prize away and out of sight \u2013 I presume he took the snake to impale on a thorn somewhere so he could eat his snack a little bit easier (see photo series).<\/p>\n<p>We are still in the early days of the loggerhead shrike breeding season here in Napanee. Many of the pairs here are either incubating or have just started incubating their eggs. Our team is looking forward to watching these shrikes become successful parents in the coming weeks!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_3'  class='avia-section av-198cvyx-2044c944b4484f7e52e501b653855c2b main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_section  blog-inner avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-16153'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-ohkvw9-cdf8a823d37deedb98ef049f4745ffb3 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-12  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  author-section first flex_column_div'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-lflgzd1k-4c03a0704135686ad5769d1148f66ef9'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Alexandra Israel<\/h3>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: left;\">Napanee Biologist \u2013 Eastern Loggerhead Shrike Recovery Program<\/h5>\n<p>Alex completed her Master\u2019s degree in Biology at York University, where she studied nest concealment in Wood Thrushes and how it might influence nest success in this Species at Risk.
