That's what I witnessed today, an Australian magpie taking on a young (1st yr I believe) wedge-tailed eagle... Australia's largest bird of prey <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /> Amazing. Needless to say, the magpie didn't stick around long. In fact, I believe it was after the magpie noticed the second wedge-tail that he decided he was better off leaving them alone, haha. Still, I love seeing Wedgies, they're so majestic.</p></blockquote><p></p>
