Magpies Bega Valley NSW

Magpies - during their relatively short breeding season, the males become very territorial and will try to swoop, peck and generally chase away any perceived predator. Needless to say, they are usually quite good at it, since they spend a lot of time and energy swooping and pecking to protect their territory from other magpies.

Being fairly robust, they can frighten the day lights out of any passerby hapless to have become a target. Ice cream containers with large eyes painted on them in the back, worn as a hat, is a generally agreed form of protection though not guaranteed.
