Black-faced Cuckooshrike

The Black-faced Cuckooshrike is a slender, gray bird with a distinctive black mask, pale gray underparts, and a slightly hooked bill. It is widespread across Australia, New Guinea, and parts of Southeast Asia, occupying open woodland, forest edges, parks, and gardens. It feeds on insects, caterpillars, and berries, hunting from exposed perches and performing a characteristic wing-shuffling motion after landing.
