  1. I think you may find that these are Magpie Larks, which are a different black and white spaces to the Australian Magpie - but they are still nice birds.

    1. I can´t disagree as I was a bit confused myself. But if you are right the "great leaders" of my group was wrong as the lark is not on the list for that day :)
