(This person is kinda upset that I dissed their favorite browser. I actually use Chrome and I like it, but for some reason the layout here is different than on Firefox. And of course, the iPad and IE just plain suck. You tool.)

Shrike

Shrikes, also known as "butcher birds," is a family of medium-sized birds that live mostly in Europe, Asia, or Africa, inhabiting mainly open land like steppes and savannas. They are famous for their feeding habits: they catch their prey (insects, small birds, and mammals) and impale them on thorns, hence the name "butcher birds."

Here is some awesome footage of a Great Grey shrike impaling a mouse.
