Acrobatic Magpie

He's a dab hand - or should that be claw - Pat! Thanks.

Thank you Suzy! It was a very lazy photo, taken from the sofa through glass, while keeping one eye on the tennis on television!

Great photo of him, Lorna!

Nothing like eating upside down .. Love it

Thanks Jacki. Yes, not the sweetest of characters but then they are part of the crow family.... ☺

Thanks Jill. It took some practise on the part of the magpie to become so proficient!☺

That’s a great shot Lorna, showing the acrobatic prowess of this magpie. 😄

It is a beautiful bird, Lorna, but I do understand they're a little like our bluejays in temperment.

Thank you beyondwords. ☺

Thanks, they are Tea, but.... ☺

They’re so pretty !
Thanks Lorna :)

Fun photo of European magpie.

He is for sure Patti! It was interesting watching him figure out how to access the food. They don't find it too easy whichever way they try, but they always get their prize!

Indeed Lela! Exactly that. ☺

Magpie pole dancer!!
............. so to speak .............

He looks and sounds like quite the character! :) Thank you Lorna!
