User's notes

Two females, one male and thwo chicks still in nest. I occasionally feed Magpies in my neighbourhood especially during nesting season. This male must have been one of my past fledgelings as he flew down and perched on the fence nearby, then dropped to the ground and looked up at me expectantly as if to say "Do you have anything to feed me and my chicks?". I had to disappoint him.
