Identify this birdie please

Cousin in law tooks kiddies to Atlanta Zoo, she took this picture, and knowing I have birds, she thinks I know EVERY bird in the world. But I told her I would find out for her.

What a beautiful bird. I can name just about every type of parrot (available in the u.s.) but I'm clueless to the rest of them.

Hmmm, with that beak, I wonder if they're related to North American Shrikes.

I found out about this species because I saw a photo of one once and the person was calling it a "rare kookaburra". Living in Australia, I knew it was not a kookaburra so I had to find out what it really was. o__O
