This post is not really for the faint hearted. Impaled dead reptiles feature.
In South Africa we have a small bird of prey called the Southern Fiscal. Note the hooked beak.

The bird gets its colloquial name Jackie Hangman from its habit of hanging its captured prey on thorns. The following picture is of a small Common Slug Eater that has been hung out in a lemon tree by a Jackie Hanger.
