Understandably, after all the trouble of incubating the eggs. A Tiger Shrike – as always – looks very stylish. Meanwhile, Little Grebes are still in a slightly earlier phase. Little Ringed Plovers are fiercely protective of their cute chicks. A Grey Night Jar does what it does best – being almost invisible.

As we gazed upwards at those backlit migratory warblers, I noticed a Bare-throated Tiger-Heron … nesting! And then there was a Green Heron , not only showing us its nest, but also an egg. This species is relatively common in tropical Mexico, but I certainly never expected to see it nesting in an urban park. And yet, there it was.

Some other members of the shrike family were a bit less testosterone-driven at Nanhui – like this Bull-headed Shrike … … this rather attractive-looking Tiger Shrike … … or one of the many Brown Shrikes passing through Nanhui on migration. A happier shrike.

As she continued her monologue about these cats, the Wildcat cautiously walked in our direction, never taking its eyes off of us, stiff-legged, ears motionless, striped like a standard “tiger” domestic cat but entirely in grays. He also had tigers, cougars, and some other animals. That was one of his cats. Plus, Coyotes eat Cats.

Of course, it is hard to resist looking at a paper titled “Host personality predicts cuckoo egg rejection in Daurian redstarts” Basically, the personality of a female redstart (bold or shy) predicts the responses to parasitic eggs – bold hosts are more likely to reject parasitic eggs.

The rather elegant-looking Tiger Shrike also mostly feeds on insects but was not kind enough to let me take a video or photo of this (the species thinks that such recordings may result in a negative public image). Insects seem to also be the main food item of Brown Shrikes , as this video also shows.
