Some authors split the common fiscal into northern fiscal Lanius humeralis and southern fiscal Lanius collaris; see map for explanation. The territorial and morphologic differences are not well established so all of these are shown under common fiscal, although most are likely northern. The upper bird was seen in Oldonyo Sambu (1-21), courtesy of Per Holmen. The 2nd row birds were seen in Morogoro (9-03); the 3rd row, in Arusha NP (left, 2-17), courtesy of Karine Van der Vurst and Olasiti (8-10). The photos with the immature were taken at Gibb's Farm (4-04). Click the photo above to see several enlargements.
