Eurasian Magpie in a Garden Flower Bed

Magpies are intelligent birds that frequently explore backyard gardens and farmyards in search of food or interesting objects. Clay pots and wooden garden tools are classic features of rural flower beds where soil is tilled for blooming plants. The bird's sharp eyesight allows it to inspect cultivated flower beds for beetles, worms, and fallen seeds.

Remarkable Intelligence of Magpies

Magpies belong to the corvid family, which includes some of the most intelligent species in the animal kingdom. They are known to recognize themselves in mirrors and remember specific locations where they have stashed food or garden finds. Gardeners often observe magpies walking along soil beds because freshly turned earth reveals hidden insects.
