The Feathered Fighter of Australia: Magpie Madness! Meet the Australian Magpie – as smart as a crow, and twice as feisty! Every year from August to October, these birds turn the streets into swoop zones. If you walk too close to their nest, they might give you a "flying kiss" — straight to your face! People wear spike helmets and goggles just to survive their swooping attacks. Magpie season in Australia isn’t just nature — it’s full-on aerial warfare! #magpie #australianbirds #australianwildlife

But there's one reason why they're more likely to be agitated this year. | 10 News Melbourne
