Hello My friend, Thank you for your footage. Your kit looks super and no denying its accuracy. Personally, I feel I have to give magpies the utmost respect. If I don't, I won't be successful. If that were me, as soon as I heard the horrible Magpie chatter, I'd have clicked the stock in position and made sure there was no more movement required before the magpie came in. You can't afford any movement whatsoever as the magpies will see you and be off. Not only that, they'll sound the alarm bell, warning everything else not to come in, too. You only get a couple of moments, if that, with magpies. You've got to be absolutely ready, or your chance will be gone for that day. That's the respect they require, to be successful with them. Best wishes, Ian.
