TALE OF THE LANNER MAGPIE

The Magpie is one of our most common birds, and if it were a rare bird it would be really twitched in a big way,as they can be real stunners to view.
But down here in the deep depths of the South West in my garden I have one that wants to be a cut above the rest, and has gone to great lengths to be different.
This one has been in residence for the past couple of years, and quite flighty and difficult to photograph , but I nailed it about an hour ago.
