How many shrikes are found in Kenya?

15 shrikes that we profile appear on Kenya's eBird-reported checklist. The full A–Z list is on this page; the real total can shift as eBird records are added.

Are all of these shrikes really found there?

Yes — each one is on Kenya's eBird checklist (reported by birders to the Cornell Lab's eBird), and each of these shrikes belongs to the family group named on this page. We don't rank them by abundance, because that varies by season and locale.
