Great shot Billy! A very common bird these days but not, in my experience, easy to photograph. They tend to be very wary of people. Plus you have the built in high contrast to deal with! This is a gorgeous shot.

Cheers Dave. I agree its rare that you get a Magpie to pose near enough to get a decent shot. This one landed in front of a hide that I was sat in so it was an easy shot.

Lovely shot Billy of usually a difficult and wary bird to photograph.
