Life In Another Town's video: A Magpie in our garden - we are blessed with lots of different birds visiting

Some years ago, my wife and I put out several bird feeders and a couple of bird baths in the communal garden. Since then, attracted by the daily food and fresh water, our garden has become a sanctuary to many varieties of birds. Our wildlife camera captured this Magpie eating, drinking, and collecting food for it's fledglings. According to the RSPB , the scientific name for the Magpie is "Pica Pica". Magpies are omnivores and "With its noisy chattering, black-and-white plumage and long tail, there is nothing else quite like the magpie in the UK. When seen close-up its black plumage takes on an altogether more colourful hue with a purplish-blue iridescent sheen to the wing feathers and a green gloss to the tail. Magpies seem to be jacks of all trades - scavengers, predators and pest-destroyers, their challenging, almost arrogant attitude has won them few friends. Non-breeding birds will gather together in flocks." If you are a British child of the 1970s, then you'll remember the ITV kids television programme "Magpie". Gioachino Rossini, the renowned Italian composer wrote "La gazza ladra", an opera about "The thieving magpie". The opera is best known for its overture.
