That is one beautiful magpie. I'd enjoy having his company too. Hope all is well.
Great pic Birds always tend to fly off when I try to make a picture.
I came across one of your articles on Helium Loved it Didn't know you write so much. Will get back there again
oh waht a beautiful photo :)
i'd <3 to hear his song too!
I love the angle you took in this shot: you've made him look quite noble!
We have magpies too but I've never heard them sing. I wonder why ours are so lazy? lol
I love the mischievousness of magpies, we don't have them here, but when I lived in Colorado, they were everywhere.
I'm dreaming still of your beautiful poem of tall ships, Gemma this is beautiful...set in the dream time of your beautiful spring skies, what beautiful words to compliment ones soul...and you truly have a full one friend!
Now that we are getting all moved in to both places, I'm looking forward to visiting more, as things slow down...they will slow down right??? Yeah, as soon as the first snows fly for sure!!!
See ya sweet friend...smooch!
What a cool looking bird. I do not get to see the Magpies around me. Thanks for sharing your critter photo.
Beautiful magpie! What fun to have them where you live. I only see them at the zoo. :(
Great shot!
I played too :)
Good shot. This magpie looks a little different from the ones I have seen before; must be a cousin or something!
This guy is a pretty big bird isn't he!
Lovely shot! I also like the reflected background.

I had never seen a magpie...
I wish i could hear him sing...lovely beak

You've taken a lovely photo of one of your magpie's Gemma. And I love the music on your blog. So relaxing to listen to :)
Marvelous capture of this Magpie. Love the perspective. I'm not sure I've ever heard one sing.
Hugs and blessings,
Love the rich black feathers. How nice to be serenaded by such a lovely creature.
