I was weeding this morning and a juvenile magpie popped over and posed for some photos, mostly from her perch on Earth Pig — prime hunting ground for peanuts (or so I’m told). Very calm. Ludicrously gorgeous. I edited down from about 100 photos.
And now a word about magpies. This is not a walking post, but I thought I would share some of the photos of the young magpies who are all over the city right now. As my favourite bird, I figured it was only fitting that I celebrate the continuation of their species, helped in no small part by the peanuts and sunflower seeds I provide them year round, as does my family. Carry on dudes and dudettes.
