That was hysterical. Loved it. Especially the branches. Magpies are rather large, but I'd have been laughing instead of screaming. Now, a turkey flapping - that's another thing altogether. I had to pick up my turkey once and it jacked my jaw so hard I ended up at the doctor's office with muscles in my neck twitching and terrible nerve pain. I won't be picking up a turkey again.
Hilarious! And it's only actually two minutes for the video to run completely (although I kept hoping for more, and sat there for the third minute with eyes glued to the screen)
Australia, the beautiful land down under that has a remarkable amount of "we will kill you" species. I do get the magpie won't cause her serious harm, but man, I wonder how on my guard I will have to be when I visit there. LOL!
The local kids run the gauntlet like this every day for about six weeks of the year ... and the poor postman really cops it from magpies . They hate him !!
She needs to tighten the helmet
ReplyDeleteShe needs to get a grip.
DeleteShe needs to get a life!!!
DeleteShe needs to stop screaming.
DeleteMind you, that Magpie was about twice as big as any I have seen before.
DeleteFlashback to Hitchcock's "The Birds". Glad I don't live down under!
ReplyDeletecurious!

ReplyDeleteBy the way, your Zombie post said it doesn't exist. At least on my computer.

ReplyDeleteOur local council puts signs up in trees frequented by swooping magpies. And no, the eyes don't work.

ReplyDeleteactually, magpies have been known to take peoples eyes, it doesnt happen often but it happens
DeleteOh my, how very Edgar Allan Poe then.
DeleteIn her defence, those swooping magpies can be bloody scary.
ReplyDeleteSee how tough we are down under?!

ReplyDeleteMaybe not so hilarious after all, after reading the comments. I had no idea that was anything except a rogue bird ...
ReplyDeleteThey watch you with evil eyes!!
ReplyDeleteThe only time they won't attack is in your own garden, then they come pestering for food.
I clicked to watch and it said, "this video has been removed by the user." That's what i get for taking a few days off from blog reading.
