Tucker too good to be afraid of humans

5:08 to 5:11 pm. Right on sunset.


This is the stock standard humble old magpie, magpie appears to have got a prime bit of leftover chicken carcase all to itself. It's very lucky, usually hordes of scavenging pigeons, seagulls, ibis and mynas would be noisily competing for it.







Someone passes on the right, going away from us. Bird doesn't really give much ground. I think this type of magpie is just naturally more brazen around humans.


Someone else is moving toward us on the right. Bird doesn't worry about her at all.


Time for a breather and a quick stroll, relaxed and comfortable, but keeping a close watch on what's left of the prize.

Any more??
