Your last gig before this week was that night supporting The Colour Field at Hammersmith Palais. Have you talked about the night since or is it a subject best avoided? Briggs, Amy (19 August 2023). "Magpies make Australia's favourite animal sound — but their calls are more than just a pretty tune". ABC News. Archived from the original on 19 August 2023 . Retrieved 19 August 2023. These birds are often seen sitting on the boundary of two territories of two groups, with the birds from one group claiming rights of one side, while the other, the other side. However, the birds would never cross the sides. The Eurasian magpie is believed not only to be among the most intelligent of birds but among the most intelligent of all animals. It is the only bird known to pass the mirror test, along with very few other non-avian species.Only 10 per cent of the male magpies actually swoop people and the research suggests it is actually a learned behaviour,” Dooley says. “These birds might have had a bad experience with humans in the past, and they remember that and swoop when humans come near their nest.” On the ground, the Australian magpie moves around by walking, and is the only member of the Artamidae to do so; woodswallows, butcherbirds and currawongs all tend to hop with legs parallel. The magpie has a short femur (thigh bone), and long lower leg below the knee, suited to walking rather than running, although birds can run in short bursts when hunting prey.

It’s almost a rite of passage to be swooped by a magpie in Australia, but it can be terrifying and they can inflict damage. It’s rare but it happens,” Dooley admits. Magpie pox can cause growths that can lead to a secondary bacterial infection. The infection may require antibiotics prescribed by a veterinarian, and the affected bird may need to be cared for by a licensed wildlife carer. If the growths become too large, they can cause permanent damage to the bird's eyes and beak. When left untreated, the bird's condition can worsen and cause discomfort, pain, and eventually, death.Boy killed trying to avoid magpie". Brisbane Times. Fairfax Publications. 9 September 2010.

A few magpies in other parts of the world are categorized as Endangered. For example, the Asir magpie population is decreasing due to the loss of habitat. The Juniper forests in Africa where they live are being cleared. Magpies are part of the Corvidae family, which also includes crows, ravens, and jays. The family is believed to have originated in the Paleogene period, around 60 million years ago, and has since diversified into more than 120 species. Magpies are believed to have evolved from an ancestral crow-like bird, which lived around 17 million years ago.
Furthermore, when we flee from the onslaught, the bird’s main objective – moving a dangerous predator on – is successful and the behaviour rewarded. a b Troup, Christina (20 November 2008).

The accidental openings and endless downtime of the stereotypical on-the-road piece were a perfect fit with his personality. His brief diversion into film journalism, by contrast, came to grief when he went on a promotional junket for Bernardo Bertolucci’s film Stealing Beauty in 1996, and when confronted with the inanities of a round-table interview with the director – several journalists jostling for his attention, to no one’s benefit – simply walked out. Last time I interviewed Pete, he seemed a bit concerned after watching you (Andy) on TV talking about All Saints splitting up. What sort of music do you all listen to these days? If Magpie has shown herself to you, you can take it as a sign that it is time for you to get yourself out into the open country, where you can breathe the clean air.
