Australian native bird, Magpie, Gymnorhina tibicen. It is not related to the European Magpie. Magpies are one of the most intelligent bird species. They use their foot to hold food while they peck at it. A beak as sharp as a needle with which it digs up worms in the soil or rip open fruit. Magpies live and breeds in pairs within a larger flock. I encourage them into my garden with titbits of food as they dig up the white lawn eating grubs.
