Butcherbirds get their name from the way they hang their captured prey from spikes while they dismember it. They will use twigs, barbed wire, or crevices in between branches to hang a carcass just like a butcher would hang meat from a hook. They are very similar in appearance to the Australian magpie and are in fact from the same family. They have a more thickset appearance than a magpie. Magpies are more slender-looking and also have black bellies, whereas most butcherbirds, apart from the black butcherbird, have white bellies. Pied butcherbirds are identifiable by their black hood. I liken it to an executioner's hood as it extends from the back of their necks, all across their heads and down to their chests. Grey butcherbirds on the other hand have white throats and dark grey feathers on their backs. Pied butcherbirds are 28 to 32 centimetres in length. Grey butcherbirds are 27 to 30 centimetres in length. Both species are smaller than the Australian magpie which is between 37 and 43 centimetres in length.
