Lanius collurio
Kruger National Park, iSimangaliso Wetland Park and Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park are among the four atlas places where the Red-backed Shrike is recorded. Records concentrate most in France, South Africa, Norway, Sweden and Finland, and the map follows where these records gather. The atlas holds about 187,000 open records of this bird from 36 countries.
Seasons differ by region for the Red-backed Shrike, and each place page shows the months recorded there.
These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Red-backed Shrike as much as where it lives. The atlas keeps a species' 200 best-recorded grid cells, so the map shows where records concentrate rather than its whole range. Cells are up to 25 km across, and every location is generalised to its cell.
Generalised encounter areas, not exact locations. Each shape is a grid cell coloured by how likely the species is there.
Conservation status not assessed here yet, so every location is generalised to its grid cell.
