Chatty magpie

I caught this guy in mid-caw! He was being a very chatty little fellow one morning. It's not the clearest picture, unfortunately, but I still like it. Didn't have time to dig out the tripod, birds tend not to be patient enough to stick around while you fiddle.

Cropped out some of the tree so he doesn't get quite as lost amongst the branches.
