Buried some of Mum’s ashes in the back garden of the new place, at about the time she died two years ago.
A magpie started singing as I covered them up. She would have liked that, I think.
I moved a dead magpie off the road a while ago. There were a bunch of magpies on the powerlines around it. I sort of placed it in order next to a tree in the nature strip. They all started squawking when I picked it up, and started warbling when I placed it. I tossed out a handful of broken up dog treats, for their wake. I think they got it.
e: I remembered before all that above, what got my attention was, they were freaking out at what turned out to be cars passing near the dead magpie on the road. I was concerned for their safety getting riled up at the cars, which is why I moved it.

There’s something about magpies…they know stuff, I reckon. That’s lovely

Yeah, they smell fear.
