Australian Magpie-lark in National Library

[Helen Cross <>]

I've seen a magpie in the Woolies/Coles end of Woden Plaza a few times lately - flying around up high. I assume it can get out but it does seem to have a sore foot. Helen

I swim at the Tuggeranong Leisure Centre twice a week and it is not at all unusual to find one or two Magpie-larks that have been indoors overnight, presumably, as they are there at 6am with all the doors tightly shut.

A female Australian Magpie-lark was observed this morning taking advantage of when the exit door was opened by someone leaving.
It would come in, search for crumbs, and then stand on the mat near the same door waiting for someone leaving to trigger the door opening mechanism again. Smart move, especially on a cold day when the westerlies are blowing off the snow.
