Description

The brown shrike Lanius cristatus is a bird in the shrike family that is found mainly in Asia. It is closely related to the red-backed shrike L. collurio and isabelline shrike L. isabellinus. The genus name, Lanius, is derived from the Latin word for `butcher`, and some shrikes are also known as `butcher birds` because of their feeding habits. The specific cristatus is Latin for `crested`, used in a broader sense than in English.[2] The common English name `shrike` is from Old English scríc, `shriek`, referring to the shrill call.
