What is a magpie? The name sounds familiar. Do we have those here lol? Yeah, I just googled it and I'm pretty sure we don't, but they are cool looking. On a serious note, since I really didn't give any kind of serious answer, I'm kinda indifferent to crows. They are everywhere and they sound kinda annoying, but whatever.
Magpies are smaller than ravens (dunno about crows?) and are black and white. They're native to Australia and make a 'warble' sound. They're also the mascot for the Collingwood Football Club. :p /ihatefootball

Also I've been swooped by them on several occasions. They do not like me. 3<

They can be VERY cute, though, and also very friendly. But yeah...swooping isn't good. My grandma has this fantastic story about how she and my grandpa took in a baby who was injured, and who eventually grew to love them and would follow them around their house (XD). They taught her to fly, and then one day she left and didn't come back for a while. Then she came back and asked for food every day, and brought a mate! Then later on, she brought her babies, and then the babies grew up and brought their children. It stopped after that, but so fascinating! And so beautiful. Can you imagine this beautiful little magpie telling her children about these nice people who saved her life and gave her another chance? ;w;
Lol so is my dog! xD Honestly he's more like a cat than a dog, though.. FRIENDLY? Did you just say magpies were FRIENDLY? ;n; Not to me! My dad rescued a maggie when I was little. All I know is it was cute and he wouldn't let me touch it. Eventually it started following him around too lol, but then it flew away when it was better. That's a really cool story though! Imagine, bringing the generations by to visit. <3 So cute!
