This is one of the magpies that visit our garden on a daily basis, but only one of 2 that was brave enough to venture into the garden when I was out with my camera.

I love this shot, and think that even the mushrooms add to it, but opinions and comments are always welcome! :)

I'm from Australia and our magpies look very different!

Heehee, yea - there's a few types of magpies around. The Australian ones look very cool though :)

Oh wow! That's really cool!

None of ours do that... though they have been known to occasionally tap on the window if their favourite food has run out :)

Thank you!

I have to agree! The majority of the time I think they have a look of both friendliness and curiousity :)

Heehee :)

I do like magpies - we have up to 7 that visit the garden on a regular basis! Each has their own personality too :)

Glad you like him! :D
