A distinctive, small and winter migrant flycatcher where the males have a rusty-orange throat that continues onto the breast. All plumages have a distinctive tail pattern with black terminal bar and white sides. The wings relatively plain & a white eyering is noticeable. When perched, the tail is often held cocked with the wingtips drooping. It breeds in mature deciduous mixed forest, wintering in forests, woodlands and parks.

The Isabelline Shrike (Lanius isabellinus) is a member of the shrike family (Laniidae) found in an extensive area between the Caspian Sea and north and central China southeast to the Qaidam Basin. It is a common winter visitor to different parts of the Indian Subcontinent which is when I spotted a rare visitor to the Narsapur Forests.
