Black-and-white Shrike-flycatcher

Bias musicus (Vieillot, LJP 1818)

The black-and-white shrike-flycatcher, also known as the black-and-white flycatcher or vanga flycatcher, is a species of passerine bird found in Africa. It was placed with the wattle-eyes and batises in the family Platysteiridae but is now considered to be more closely related to the helmetshrikes and woodshrikes. Source: Wikipedia
