Apparently they can remember up to 50 faces, so if you've ever flapped at one in anger (or terror g).... be afraid! We used to have one living in a tree in our front yard. It never ever attacked us, although it swooped other people's cats etc... shiney |

I have been hand feeding magpies for about 15 years. They are now 2 distinct families, and never come for feeding at the same time (obviously birds have some form of gentlemen's agreements too). I would have to say the average age is 12 years, some longer, some not so long. Joanne |
