When I see young birds on the ground, I always hope the mowers don't show up for a few days.

We have had to scare a few out of the street onto ground a few days.

The story about the magpies chasing a tom cat up a tree was kind of funny! I've seen magpies mobbing a sparrow once so I know how aggressive they can be!
