Loggerhead Shrike
What is a soldiers least favorite month of the year?
March
Interesting Fact: Loggerhead Shrikes impale noxious prey such as monarch butterflies and eastern narrow-mouthed toads—then wait for up to three days to eat them, which allows time for the poisons to break down. These shrikes also eat the heads and abdomens of toxic lubber grasshoppers, while discarding the insect’s poisonous thorax. ( https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Loggerhead_Shrike )
I’m glad the shrikes know how to avoid the nasty stuff!
It’s quite amazing that they know that. Thank you very much for stopping by and checking out my post. Happy Blogging! 🙂
