Have you been swooped this season?  I have!  There’s a particularly bad one in Cambra Road, Belmont, where I go every week.  It swoops two cyclists that I know of – multiple swoops each time you ride up or down the street.  Cable ties keep it from hitting my helmet, and I vent my feelings verbally.

Heather, Angelika and Maria had a ‘maggie expert’ talking about bird psychology on Saturday’s show.  John has now processed this as a pod cast and you can listen to the show on http://www.cpod.org.au/ .  Or listen to next week’s show at 11am on Saturday on The Pulse 94.7 FM.

Let us know what you think, and what works for you as magpie repellent.
