A short clip of a side opening or walk in, magpie trap works. You will also see that they rely on the magpie stepping on the treadle, and if they don't then it is possible they enter the trap and leave again.
This form of trapping is legal provided the trap is checked every day and that the call bird has food, water and shelter from the sun and rain.
In my opinion, although an excellent little trap, I feel it should be a little larger.
