14 of em cool must be in a park lots of lawn for em..
Magpies never forget a face if ya nice to em now and they get to know ya and don’t see you as a threat.. then just maybe if ya lucky they won't draw blood on the back of ya skull or take an eye out next breeding season lol
I got pinned down by one in town last year trying to get from my car into a building he was in full attack mode had me running for me life covering me eyes

That’s amazing riding with you like that!! I might grab some mealworms for them, but I don’t want them to become reliant on me so won’t do it every day. Yep, they’re in the big park, but they come up the driveway each day singing and a few neighbours give them tidbits

Now when I whistle they come up to me @rogue60 didn’t take long to gain their trust.

Blowing a gale here in ACT. One guy fishing with a boat drowned in Eucumbene & another "missing" -wouldn't like to be searching for him in the chop.

we had the front head over yesterday, and I watched it grow in intensity as it passed over the state.
