Black-Billed Magpie
Magpies are very social, and often move in groups, making a variety of sounds such as trills, cackles, and whistle calls.
They are omnivores, eating fruit, grain, insects, small animals, and carrion (decaying flesh of dead animals).
They are colored black and white, with blue-ish green iridescent color on the wings and tail and two white stripes on their back.
The tail is very useful for making sharp turns.
These birds are black and white overall with blue-green iridescent flashes in the wing and tail. The upperparts are mostly black with a white patch in the outer wing and two white stripes (“backpack straps”) on the back.
