BUTCHERBIRD

Butcherbird

Butcherbirds are magpie-like birds in the genus Cracticus. They are native to Australasia. The Australian Magpie has recently been placed in the same genus, and this new taxonomy has been supported by recent phylogenetic analyses. Together with three species of currawong and two species of Peltops, butcherbirds and the Australian magpie form the subfamily Cracticinae in the family Cracticidae.
