Beautiful. Our magpies in Australia are quite different in coloring - black & white but still very handsome.

Hei!
Olen etsinyt lopputyötäni varten kuvaa harakasta, jossa näkyisi hyvin tämän vihretävänturkoosiin vivahtava sävy, eikä niinkään sininen. Löysin kuvasi, ja mietin, raaskisitko sinä antaa lopputyötä varten tekijänoikeuden nojalla luvan käyttää tätä kuvaa? Se tulee tosiaan vain sitä varten, ja kirjallinen versio työstäni, missä tämä kuva esiintyy, jää vain koulullemme Ikataan sekä itselleni. Se ei siis leviä minnekään, eikä kenelläkään ole oikeuksia käyttää kuvaa ilman sinun lupaasi.

Nanoscale things in the feathers give iridescence, it's pretty neat. Starlings and pigeons have some too.

Ooooh, magpies are definitely difficult to photograph so I'm thrilled you managed to snap one... and so cleanly too. One of my favourite common birds, especially with their distinctive.. call, sounds almost like a laugh. Great work, I'm pretty sure you had to go through several frames to finally get one you were happy with, right?

Thanks mate. They don't pose for many shots.

They are realy very high-intelligence, more intelligence then a cat, a dog or a human 4 yo child. Only animals with much bigger brains can self-recognition in the mirror, humans-apes, dolphins, elephants...
