Basic stats

Habitat

Breeds in the taiga, forest and semi-desert; nests in a tree or bush

Clutch size

2–6 eggs

The brown shrike breeds in late May or June, in habitats from taiga and forest to semi-desert, building a nest in a tree or bush and laying two to six eggs (Wikipedia, general species account).

That sentence is all the source read for the Bhutan guide gives. No plumage, size, range or diet information was found, so none is stated, and its occurrence in Bhutan is flagged for checking.
