Heaps of Magpies warbling in the mornings at our place at North Rocks
(near Parramatta, Sydney).
THere is a large family that lives around our townhouse complex and
they are quite used to people. I don't feed them but do have a bird
bath that they come to. I have been regularly serenaded while eating
my breakfast 2 metres from them on the verandah.
They may be common but it is a beautiful way to start the morning.
Especially when the Grey Butcherbird goes off as well!
Cheers
Dave

I've just been asked another question by a non-birder that has me
stumped. I remember as a youngster hearing magpies doing a pleasant
warble, often in the morning. But I can't ever remember hearing
them around Sydney. Is this because there is just too much
background noise? Is it because they don't warble? Or am I just not
hearing it for some other reason?
Would love to know what others think, what happens in other cities.
