說明/ 普遍過境鳥及冬候鳥，全長約18 公分，飛行呈波浪狀。具有明顯的黑色過眼線，腹部兩側至尾羽上端呈橘紅色是其名稱由來。常挺直站在獨立枝上，尾部不停搖擺，發現獵物就直接撲到地面捕捉，以昆蟲為主食，偶爾捕食小型鳥類。通常單獨活動，領域性強，叫聲為粗啞之「嘎、嘎、嘎、嘎」連續聲。紅尾伯勞每年秋季順著第一道鋒面南下，在開學週的喧囂聲中過境本校校園，偶而也有少量留下度過冬天。（陸維元攝）
A common transit and winter migrant, 18 cm in length, with a wavy flight. It has a distinctive black bandit-mask through the eye and a rufous-brown rump and tail, for which it is named. It often perches singly on a branch, wagging its tail constantly. When it spots prey, it plummets to the ground for it, feeding primarily on insects and occasionally on small birds. Often act alone, it is territorial and makes a “chack-chack” call. It arrives with the first cold front in autumn and passes through the campus during the opening week of the new semester. Occasionally, some stay for the winter. (Photo courtesy of Lu Wei-yuan)
