Magpie is a common bird also here, a couple of them is always "investigating" our garden.
ReplyDeleteClever birds, one morning the birdbath was on ice and I noticed them to cut the ice to get some water to drink.
Hi Tony, I wondered where the pied wagtail was, but now I know.
ReplyDeleteHi Sussi, They are very clever indeed.
