They include a mate and several female offspring that bring food to the primary female and her young. It's an example of cooperative breeding, when birds other than the parents help out to raise young.Support comes from Wild Delight Bird Food, offering a variety of blends designed to mimic the natural resources wild birds crave, available at Chewy.com.¡Escuche este episodio en BirdNote en Español!More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

In this special interview, Laura Sheppard speaks to Rob Ingram, one of the driving forces behind Entertainment Events, about an extraordinary year of fundraising through music, theatre and community-led events. Recorded at a volunteer thank-you evening, the conversation reflects on the huge collective effort behind the scenes - from set builders and marquee teams to first aiders, front-of-house volunteers and performers - all of whom played a part in raising an impressive sum for the Rosemary Foundation. The programme also features voices from across the evening, including the town crier Faye and deputy town crier Martin, local band Fate of the Magpie, and representatives from the Rosemary Foundation, who explain exactly what the charity does, how vital fundraising like this is to their running costs, and the real difference it makes to patients and families in the local area.

RAVENS BEFRIEND DALLAS AND DISPLACE THE COCKATOOS Colleague Jeremy Zakis. Zakis updates the backyard wildlife saga, noting the arrival of intelligent Ravens that have befriended his dog, Dallas. Unlike the aggressive Cockatoos that damaged a neighbor's roof, the Ravens displayed strategic dominance by organizedly displacing the Cockatoos from a pine tree. Zakis describes the Ravens' "surgical" approach, using vocal harassment and gradual escalation rather than brute force to claim the territory. He observes that while the Cockatoos still lurk, the Ravens have established control. Additionally, he counts at least five Magpie families in the area, with several actively visiting his property to interact with Dallas.

Sara admonished, “I don't know what Trajce was doing – I think he was trying to negotiate with the Maggie to usher in its surrender.” However, the escapade allowed the team a break from the serious stuff and see the comical side of life. “I set my intention daily,” Sara explained, “and today was about joyous laugher with you both.” Sara shared her yogic philosophy on Sankalpa, setting an intention at the beginning of the day and, later, reflecting on the day with gratitude. The boys, Alan and Trajce, struggle with the concept until the pause to reflect on their quality time with their respective partners. This episode explores personal reflections as Sara gears up to share her news in a future episode, and the team relate the ideas of simple pleasures to intentional leadership, design, and victim impact statements - something which Trajce has written about extensively.

Darwin's Finches: The Evolution Myth and the Speed of Adaptation — Steven Moss — Moss corrects widespread misconceptions regarding Darwin's Finches, noting that Charles Darwin collected the specimens but failed to properly label their specific island origins, and subsequently employed pigeons rather than finches to explain evolutionary mechanisms. Moss discusses researchers Peter and Rosemary Grant, who demonstrated that evolutionary adaptation can occur with extraordinary rapidity, occurring within single El Niño weather events. Moss explores Australian birds, including the Magpie, as examples of misnamed convergent evolution. Moss emphasizes that all bird species, including the frequently underestimated pigeon, possess sophisticated cognitive and intelligence capabilities. 1862

Dallas the Dog Fosters Trust with Magpie Family, Enhancing Their Intelligence. Jeremy Zakis chronicles how Dallas the dog has adopted a magpie family, leading to a comfortable second generation residing nearby. Dallas's kind, placid demeanor fosters trust, allowing the smart magpies to grow up around him and even play with his toys. A study suggests these positive social interactions enhance magpie intelligence, while vandal cockatoos continue stripping local trees. Guest: Jeremy Zakis.

Cockatoos Confirmed as Structural Vandals; Magpie Invites Itself Inside. Jeremy Zakis discusses how the destructive behavior of cockatoos is confirmed as they pulled so many nails from a neighbor's iron roof that the structure is now drooping, necessitating expensive, specialized repairs. Cockatoos are described as "pure evil with wings" and are known for tearing up building structures. Conversely, Dallas the poodle's friends, the magpies, are growing bolder. One teenage magpie walked four feet into Jeremy's kitchen and calmly listened to him before eventually walking back out. Australian magpies are even said to have a unique, twangy "Australian accent."

3.  Magpie Breeding Causes Bird Substitution: Dallas the Dog Meets the Courageous Currawong Family Guest:Jeremy Zakis Dallas the dog was "absolutely dumbfounded" before dawn when he found a family of currawongs on the back lawn instead of his usual magpies. Currawongs are similar in size to magpies but resemble crows, retaining some white feathers. They appear to be substituting for the magpies, who are now dedicating more time to their nests during breeding season. Dallas eventually became accepting of the currawongs. These substitute birds are courageous, sometimes standing at the kitchen window looking in at eye level. Furthermore, the destructive cockatoos ("cockies"), known for stripping pine trees and dropping debris like half-eaten pine cones and sticks, are also staying away during their own breeding cycle, offering a "nice little reprieve."

Magpie by Millie Jones In this story, a stroll through suburban Mudgee turns into an encounter with the swooping monarchs of the blue gums. Here’s your ultimate how-to-survive-magpies manual. Tip: If you cross paths with a magpie, skip the two-hands-above-your-head surrender - just give a friendly nod and keep walking with dignity. Produced by: Millie Jones Sound design by: Ramon Briant Gordons Bay by Lucie Towers Gordon’s Bay was a beach under the rule of a fearsome “King of Crabs.” Among the seaweed and tide-washed rubbish, Lucie scavenged for lost toys and trinkets, treasures in her eyes. Today, the bay is pristine and beloved. Watch out, King Gordon may still be lurking. Produced by: Lucie Towers Sound design by: Hethre Contant Cockroach by Jin Hien Lau In our third story, what begins as a chance encounter with a cockroach on an escalator spirals into a wild story of movie nights, pop culture, and a swarm of roaches bursting out of a DVD case. It’s proof that even cockroaches can steal the show and your pizza. Produced by: Jin Hien Lau Sound design by: Gregory Thorsby Raindrop Tiara by Giddy Pillai In this story, a rainy-day memory becomes a fairytale when a stranger shares his umbrella and walks the narrator home.

In this week's podcast, we dive into why so many investors underperform the very funds they invest in. Drawing on Morningstar's Mind the Gap 2025 research, we explore how “magpie behaviour” — chasing shiny new investments, panicking in downturns, or tinkering too much — quietly erodes long-term wealth. The evidence is clear: bad behaviour can cost over 1% per year, compounding into massive losses over time. But the gap isn't inevitable. This episode shares practical steps to help you capture more of the returns you deserve — and avoid being the magpie. Key Points Morningstar “Mind the Gap 2025” shows investors lose ~1.2% per year due to poor timing and bad behaviour. Chasing shiny investments (like tech, AI, or thematic funds) often backfires. ETFs and bond funds show wider performance gaps due to frequent trading. Behaviour matters more than markets or fees — discipline drives long-term returns. Five ways to close the gap: Automate contributions, rebalancing, and withdrawals Work with an advisor to stay disciplined Focus on low-cost, globally diversified core holdings Keep “fun money” small if dabbling in niche funds Build a margin of safety into your financial plan Disclaimer

Liverpool will travel to St. James' Park to round out Matchweek Two in the Premier League, and in another time it might merely be a rematch of last season's League Cup final, or just a meeting of two major institutions of English football who've never particularly liked each other.But this one has a different kind of electrical charge, because the defending champion Reds are trying to pry Newcastle's star striker, Alexander Isak, out of a black-and-white jersey. The forward is agitating for the move, and the Magpie faithful are not happy about any of it. The Swede isn't likely to feature, but he'll be looming over it all, and it's sure to be a tumultuous atmosphere on Tyneside.That's just a small part of what we got into with this week's guest: Clive Tyldesley, the legendary commentator for CBS Sports and Paramount+ who's been calling the biggest games in European football for decades. Along the way, he's seen a whole lot, and his vast experience and the wisdom thereof is now pouring into a new project: his blog here on Substack, where he weighs in on football's current affairs with wit and insight.He joins the show to talk Isak, Liverpool, the Club World Cup, why Sergio Busquets is the greatest walking footballer ever, and the state of the game he loves.
