I called 'my' magpie Scruffy as well. It had been attacked by other birds and had a bald pecked head and couldn't fly for months. I fed it while it was earthbound in the local backyards and then when it recovered it would fly back and perch on the stair railings for snacks. Miss you Scruff.
i have just watched all your videos. Love them ! I think you'll find Scuffy here is actually a very handsome male ;) keep the videos coming. Youve inspired me to make a water park for ours too. Thank you
