Observation details
I couldn't believe it when I heard the Magpies warbling and carolling away right by my bedroom window, and I was even more astonished to walk out and see two of the sturdy, dapper creatures up in the dead tree usually beloved by the local Raptors, puffing their chests out as they sang!!! Eventually, after a nice photoshoot, they bombed away down the hill... but another two were singing from somewhere a little further towards the shed, so yes!!! Not only is this only the fourth or fifth ever record of Magpies on our land in twenty years, but its also the most in a single sitting!!!
