Magpie on the Track
A very battered magpie stands on the farm track to Little Marshfoot Farm. Looks like it had been in a fight with something as it has lost an eye. I did think it was dead but close up it was still breathing and after I left it to walk down the track it hopped around a little. Unfortunately, what life it has left will be ended by either a local cat or a fox looking for food. The close up view does highlight the iridescent green found on their tails (Others will have shades of purple or blue).
