Magpie (Pica pica)

A new visitor to my garden this year. He is picking up scraps and taking them over to the bird bath, wetting them and then flying off. Maybe they are for his partner or youngsters ?

That's such interesting behaviour to observe Carole. I wonder if that's a way to get moisture into the nestlings?

A great picture you've got too. Well done lass.
