I am unaware of Common Fiscal distribution outside of Africa, and the distribution section is still very specific to southern africa. If the bird occurs elsewhere, please update the article, and also improve the range description for Africa north of Zimbabwe. Rudivs 15:45, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone got an appropriate picture that's wikipedia licence freindly? Rudivs 15:45, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure if the introduction is correct. I seem to remember reading somewhere that the Fiscal Shrike actually does not eat most of the prey it impales on thorns and barbed wire. As it stands in the article, it implies that the bird will definitely eat the prey it has impaled. This might be incorrect. Oom Kosie (talk) 16:03, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
