A rare moment of tenderness with Australia's most dangerous bird (really).
/because this is the internet, I want to make it abundantly clear that I adore magpies. Absolutely adore them. Rooted for bloody Collingwood as a kid I loved them so much. Imagine that.

Now I'm wondering what the Bird Danger Charts are like for the USA - early this evening, I saw a rather large owl nearly fly into a jogger!
(Near Volunteer Park. Owl - and jogger - looked fine. Former sat on a low branch and glowered at the latter - and me, an innocent bystander. Possibly a barred owl? After a minute or so, it silently flew off - right above my head. First time I've seen a wild owl up-close - despite hearing loads of tawny owls growing up in Derbyshire...)
