Lovely. I saw my first magpies up close on a recent trip to Colorado. I was struck by their beautiful and distinctive black and white plumage. Amazing birds, thanks for the poem!
This is brilliant!
I am filled with awe, it is so good! I really wish it was mine! BEAUTIFUL WORK! Such an artist! Thank you.
This is poetry!!!
Lovely writing, TP.
Magpies in Australia, or at least where I live, aren't considered feral pests (although the territorial dive-bombers during nesting season can be a nuisance). The family love that you describe doesn't surprise me - we have an extended family of five that will soon be eating from our hands, they're a very communal births, with a beautiful warbling song.
Rather marvelous. You creator you. I hope some comments make you smile.
