  7. Sugh great photo's Bob. I have one in my garden it's waiting every day for bread. It's amazing to see how intelligent this birds is. When the bread is to dry he smashes the bread into the water fly away with it and hide it in the hedge of my neighbourgh. And later he knows exactly where he hide the bread.
    Have a wonderful sunday Bob.

  17. Bob, Great portrait of the Magpie! I think they are sharp birds with their well defined colours. We don't get them here, but there are quite common if you go east onto the prairies!

  20. Your magpies are so different to our magpies - one of my favourite birds. Intelligent, cheeky chappies. Thank you for a glimpse of their cousins. A gorgeous glimpse.

    1. It's black and white is hard to mix, but with sun facing behind you, it's alright Peter.

  27. Any black and white birds in Australia tend to be called Magpies - but I still think this is the real one!
