I wonder was this a vocal sound or a bill snapping. Many birds use bill 
snapping in situations like that. When I was editor of Canberra Bird Notes I 
published an article about that. It is Prendergast, H.D.V. 1987, 'Notes on bill 
snapping in Australian birds', Canberra Bird Notes 12(3): 86-89.  The Magpie 
was included.
