not everyones fav birds

Nice to have a pair of your own.lol

OOOOOOOOoooo i just asked if the Nest was in your Garden Eileen lol :) I like 2 see Magpies 2 :) i only get the 1 come to my garden :)

these have been coming here every yr for the passed 14 yrs ,,,, lol i doubt its the original pair but maybe its their off spring

Well i think its great they come 2 your Tree Nest :)

i think so too jacque

I know they are not liked by everyone but you cannot get away from their beauty.

yep and how extremely clever they are

Funny you should say that, I was watching a magpie the other day through the binoculas. He was taking peanuts (a whole row in his beak) going over to the lawn, burying them, going back, getting the nuts etc. Just hope he can remember where they are for later.

lol maybe he drew a map of his buried treasure

U might get a Peanut tree grow Dawn if he does forget lol :) u must post a pic of that :)

I wil Jacque, if "I" can remember where he put them.

O Dawn lol :D

I love Magpies...we do not have them here..they are on the east side of the mountain though and I love seeing them there when I go over to visit.

good to hear that other people like these birds, i thought maybe id be the only one lol

Enjoying the sunshine.good photo Irish

I think our squirrels would steal the peanuts , they would be gone when the Magpie came back for them ...........

It,s nice that they come back every year , shows they feel safe there :0)

thanks Deida

we dont get any squirrels in this garden Amy so the nuts are safe here for the birds

I see Irish that you have photographic identification of the hedgehog attackers, being as you are so fond of your magpies as well as your hedgehog I hope my explanation was right!! and they do not get accused of being murderers!

thanks Telme lol.
ill let you know if i see it happening again
