I have been befriending and observing the local magpies in my area for quite a few years now. The follow sightings document the current family groupings, with some history included.
This pair have been in the are for quite few years now though their territory has moved and changed over time. In the last couple of years they have taken over the territory of a pair that used to live at the roundabout at the end of Belconnen Way. I'm not sure what happened to the other pair.
Until the beginning of this breeding season the family consisted of five birds, including three female juveniles from previous seasons. Two of the juveniles have found a mate and now moved down the street and have built a nest of their own.
