Feeding Habits
Great Shrike-tyrant's diet consists mainly of large insects, lizards, frogs, and small mammals, along with eggs or nestlings of other birds. It forages by perching on high vantage points to spot and swoop down on ground dwelling prey or by catching them in flight.
Habitat
The great Shrike-tyrant favors semi-open landscapes, typically found in sub-arid regions characterized by bushy terrains, dense scrublands, and patches of cacti and bromeliads. It inhabits agricultural areas and open flats interspersed with trees at the edge of Nothofagus forests, avoiding overly dry, excessively humid environments, dense woodlands, and areas with high human activity.
