A scary time for adolescent magpies

The garden was filled with the sound of a magpie cackling and crying out. The young magpie was calling out to it's parents, they did not reply. It was time for the youngster to survive by itself. The young magpie did not like the idea and made sure everything in the garden and surrounding neighbourhood knew it!

The lonely magpie.

The young magpie found water to drink on top of the wheelie bin, the bird bath in the garden was too scary it was in the open, where was the youngster going to find food? I knew he/she would find it somewhere, magpies are resilient birds, they can look after themselves he/she will cope.

Until tomorrow...
