Tough luck, they're my favorite bird. I just love how the youngsters don't just leave the nest and do the adult thing straighaway, but that they band together in youth gangs and harass the settled-down George and Mildreds for some time. 😂
When you're fighting a cold (like I am now), everything annoys you. Like, I don't find that notice amusing. I find it cloying & overly precious. Just tell me to not feed the birds in large black marker print; I don't need you to show off that Film degree you got against your parents' wishes.

¡ATTENTION!
PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE MAGPIES.
With every bite of Bahn Mi they grow stronger and feistier. They keep breaking into the store and they are getting harder and harder to chase out. I don't want to live in Alfred Hitchcock's bird movie, if possible.
omg a hit tweet. i post actual informative stuff on here sometimes too i promise!! anyway listen to my folk album so i too can become stronger and feistier
Maybe either of them, hard to exactly tell by the footage. It does look pretty similar to baby magpies too. It came up when i searched magpies, so i didn’t inspect it too closely.
I lived in Edmonton for 6 years, this sign would be zero surprise to me (tho turns out it’s Australian magpies, not our charming terrors), one magpie is cute, two are funny, 6347 surrender and lock your doors.
Honestly I'd trust them more than #YEG city council though, at very least they would be a check on the power of developers and the Oilers Entertainment Group, finally a group neither could bully

this ain’t a lunch, it’s a bird uprising,
this ain’t a lunch, it’s a bird uprising,
I’ve got wings to fly on, but I digress,
I’m a little bird, and I want bahn mi, so feed me like a pet, feed me like a pet…🎶
The sparrows in Boston who lived near cafes with outdoor seating during Covid got fed A LOT and turned into menaces who would eat right off your plate.
One cafe tried using owl statues and that worked for about a week and they were back.
You had to make literal physical contact to shoo them!
I feel silly I just realized my homie Karter’s post did numbers congrats Karter. This is the magic of BlueSky. Bringing folks together from all walks of my social life
i wonder if this is Australia. You can tell the Magpies are scary in Australia because Australians are scared of them. They aren't scared of the snakes or spiders. But everyone fears swooping season.

Do they mean “Birdigo”? “Bird by Birdwest”? “Dial B for Birder”? Be specific, people!
