Jake the Peg

We got waylaid yesterday by a drama with parts for our range hood (bad customer service) and then took our daughter who turned 33 to lunch followed by a big Bad Panda on flickr. So I am way behind! The restaurant where we took our daughter has a local resident Magpie family who of course actually come in and snaffle tidbits dropped on the floor or left on tables - despite being banned. There was quite a hefty juvenile walking around while we ate.

 

I couldn't resist taking this shot of a sibling who stayed outside in this spot the whole time. A much thinner sibling, standing on one leg (it did have both legs) and looking a bit forlorn. Maybe it followed the restaurant rules and didn't get to eat the left overs. Anyway, this was taken on my phone - I hope the Magpie lives a long and happy life. We love them!
