Zusammenfassung:An urbanized population of the Fiscal Shrike was studied in a park-like residential and landscape area at the foothills of the Maloti/Drakensberg region. Studies focused on these aspects of breeding ecology which have not been previously investigated, viz. year-to-year and intra-seasonal variations in reproductive performance, breeding performance in relation to population density, and site tenacity in relation to habitat type. In addition, nest site selection and diet was also analyzed.
