A bird with many subspecies. The coloration differs between individuals. I think they give scientists a headache :)  Myself I love the very cool bill they have.

  4. Magpies are just fun. They are not only smart, they are very social and not at all afraid to stick their nose into your business. Our Magpies, though also black and white are a bit different, bur just as ornery. Love it, Monica ...
