    I love Australian Magpies. They’re smart, cheeky and have a lovely singing voice. I have a family that I’ve watched change over the years, they have babies, some die, some leave and some come back. They visit nearly every day.

      My father rescued a baby magpie from a dog and it visited him for years. It would sit on his shoulder while he did yard work.

        This is a dream for me, good on your dad. The closest I’ve been is when they sat on the back table with me and would sing.

      Wow, cool-looking bird! That’s really neat that you’ve seen that family evolve. I’m a city-dweller with not much greenspace access and I yearn to have something like your magpie family relationship in the future!
