Lanius senator
Distinctive and well-marked shrike. Male has chestnut crown and nape with upperparts otherwise black except for white markings on wings and shoulder and white rump; underparts white.
Favours open country and farmland scattered with scrub. Often perches on wire fences.
This is a male, first shrike I've seen.
