Magpies

I caught this young mother with her youngster this morning. You can't miss the babies because all they do is squawk for food when parents are around. I love having our resident Magpies, we have the same pair nest and rear young every year. It's wonderful!!!
Nice capture! Looks pretty dry where you are.

Thanks Jenny! It has really dried out in the last 6 weeks or so, we have had some pretty hot spells and no rain to speak of. We're on 5 acres so we don't have green lawn, I wish we did.

Ours aren't quite that tame but they let us get fairly close so they trust us, plus don't swoop in nesting season.
