Description 2 magpies walking side by side in my garden

Sorry for the slight dullness; the sun disappeared behind a cloud a couple of moments before I took the pic, otherwise the blues would be even more striking!

Thank you They are beautiful, yet suprisingly flighty... I haven't got a decent shot of them since!

Ooo, that's a good idea

The ones that visit my garden also like bread and fatty things (fat balls, suet pellets etc), so having a few of those on hand may entice them too

Thank you very much for the lovely comment and adding this picture to your favourites
It's nice to find someone who thinks they're great birds too! We have at least 7 that visit our garden, 5 of which do so on a daily basis! They're such characters!

I'm not one for plugging some of my other images in comments like this, but if you like magpies I thought you may like this pic if you haven't already seen it [link] ; it's the only other decent magpie pic I've taken and I think brings out the cheekiness of the bird!

Again, many thanks for the lovely comment and favourite, and sorry for the "plug"!

I wish there were magpies where I live. And I wish I had a garden to watch them if they were here...
Magpies are my fav birds, alongside with owls, ravens and blue jays.

I did see it, but just as thumbnail, but when I clicked it now, I saw it is very cool too!! Thanks for sharing

Aww, no, that sucks Owls and ravens are lovely too! We don't get any blue jays over here though

Again, thank you for the fave; I'm glad you like it
