Magpie Having Breakfast This Morning

I can't see the magpie, but I don't want to see him really.
I like the raindrops on your trellis - they're like little jewels.

Oh yes I can see him now. He's far enough away. lol

I had to peer at your photo to spot the magpie, Jacque! LOL.

I can see the magpie. Do you always salute magpies, I do, one for sorrow, two for joy............

On Autumn Watch the other night a magpie was bullying a fox, it was amazing.

They say if u see only 1 Magpie Ams u should Say "Morning My Lord":) I keep for getting 2watch Autumn Watch :/ & i love that Programme2

Some years ago I was alerted by a gang of magpies going CRAZY in my back garden, when I looked out the window my cat Tish had a magpie in her mouth. Screaming like a banshee I ran downstairs and into the garden to find Tish birdless and sulking. Thankfully all her teeth had been extracted due to old age and she was only holding the magpie with her gums so it got away.

LOL, Ams, I can just imagine you screaming all the way down the stairs..(Hehe) Tish was very proud of herself in spite of being toothless and when you yelled she lost her concentration...bet she gave you a meaningful look..

I was lucky I did not break my neck running down stairs, I'd give Tish 'proud' with my foot up her bottom ;-)

LOL what Laughs& Tears we have here On GOY :) My Little Febe got hold of a Wood Pigeon Once! But as shes so Small it got away & she sat there looking Miffed? lol It was as Big As Her lol

Henry chases pigeons and blackbirds (poor things) but as yet, no luck, I'm glad to say!

A swallow use to build it,s nest each year above our back door in the porch , twice it was lucky to escape with it,s life as it swooped in straight into the kitchen to the waiting cat ... each time I had to shake the cat to release it , It still came back each year though !

OMG lucky Swallow Amy :)

LOL...funny we are sharing these bird near death experiences, I joined the RSPB today. I paid the full price but people on low incomes can negotiate an annual fee. The RSPB is far more into affirmative action these days so members can feel they can contribute in a productive way.

LOL.. I luv your birds stories! ... Dora its a frustrated hunter ... by now (spring time) the swallows come to my bedroom window (remember im on 9th floor) for a rubish sunset chat...
Dora jumps up my bed and get wide open eyes.... but it's all she has...lol
