Render unto Caesar
The body language says it all, the Kookaburra is top bird, and sees to it that the Magpie submits. The pecking order is established and enforced. Having asserted it's authority, the Kookaburra flew to me, and I gave it some food, while the Magpie flew away. The Magpie returned later and I fed it too.
Although a wild bird, this Magpie will take food from my hand, and when I put food out for the other birds, will come and stand at the table next to me. Here's a link to a video from The Magpie Whisperer, happiness is a playful Magpie www.youtube.com/watch?v=vErVV9cOmws
