About These Birds
Eurasian Magpie
The Eurasian magpie is one of the most intelligent animals on Earth and the first non-mammal demonstrated to recognize itself in a mirror. These bold corvids build elaborate domed nests of sticks and have a well-known attraction to shiny objects, though this reputation may be exaggerated.
Black-billed Magpie
The Black-billed Magpie is a striking, long-tailed corvid of western North America, with bold black-and-white plumage and an iridescent blue-green sheen on the wings and tail. It inhabits open country with scattered trees, riparian woodlands, and suburban areas from Alaska south to California and east to the Great Plains. It is omnivorous, feeding on carrion, insects, fruits, seeds, and small vertebrates.
