Re: The Bully Family.
A good photo Roxy. Magpies are a dominant bird that see off all the smaller birds when food is around. They can't help being magpies where it's in their nature to do this but even so, it would be good if they didn't eat all the food leaving none for the smaller birdsRe: The Bully Family.
Not only do they bully other birds, during the mating season they will dive bomb you whether riding a bike or just walking. We had them on the orchard and I was quite nervous of them, when they dive bombed you they were only inches from your scalp, you felt the flapping of their wings on your head, no doubt some people would be bitten, or pecked at.Re: The Bully Family.

Re: The Bully Family.
That's alright Mups. I've no intention of harming them.Re: The Bully Family.
I only usually see one or perhaps two Magpies aorund my garden, but get a few big fat wood pigeons who startle the little birds.Re: The Bully Family.
It might depend on location a bit. If living near woodland, there might be more pigeons and larger birds around.
