Re: what do magpies like to eat appart from baby birds

A pair have started building a nest in the tree in my garden, scaring away the little fluffy ones that I love . No amount of hand clapping etc has diswaded them from their efforts so I managed to get a length of string into the branch from the end of a long pole, when they come I tug on the string they soon got the message that I could reach them. So without any culling\stone throwing etc I have managed to get them to move on.

Please don't tell me I'm bad, they are noisy bullies and I'm glad to be rid of them, they can go do it somewhere else NIMBY.
