@Merrymaking: lol I do think you are magpie crazy. I just assume people like certain color base on thing they like.

I love green and tree are green. :qo: I love the color brown too(tree again lol) and purple (bird, kimono, and flower/orchid) . So yea...I just base it off thing people like.

Hahahaha oh god I'm so sorry Cyan. It's not just you. It's me. In some cases - especially with magpies - I'm a walking encylopedia. And unlike any other encyclopedia, the Merrypedia has the constant urge to show herself off and tell others every piece of information she gathered over the years. That plus my constant urge to talk of either magpies or aircraft may end up as behaviour that may be considered extremely obnoxious. :p

Enough of the magpies? I'll just start on my next favorite subject then!
I had my very first flight today and I am so, so excited, I can't even wipe this stupid grin off my face 8D
I'm so happy! I enrolled for this flying club so hopefully I'm gonna get my RPL soon, which will hopefully be turned into PPL before I get it, which is a great heads-up for my ATPL which I will one day have and I could really use something like that <3
You have no idea how that felt <3

I know Flower, isn't he super cute? He will turn magpie, don't worry! :p
I'm gonna call him Dante when I have enough food to buy him :p
Seriously, you should see the spoilers! I adore his coat.

I love that For Merry Knuffel! That one is a must have xD

Okay. I have no idea what you just said. Return to magpies, at least I understand your babbling about them... ;P
No really, I've never been in a plane. I think I'll panic if I ever have to set my feet in one :mcconf:
Did you want to say you are having flight lessons? :>

Why would you panic?
If you've never been on a plane you just can't imagine what it'd feel like to fly... So neither can you say if you'll panic. Try it first. It's amazing...

And yeah, that's practically what I meant. x3

One thing I'm curious about, Merrymaking - do your magpies warble like ours do? Ours have a great sound to them...

Awww thanks Aidyla, and sorry :(
But I'm glad you like her <3

Warble? Well magpies are pretty known - notorious even - for their sounds so I do believe all of them, at least of the Pica kind, do make the same sounds :p
It's usually described as a quick "magmagmag" (like they're a friggin' Pokémon) but I don't think that puts the finger on the spot. :p
It's a crow like sound, all raspy and stuff, sort of fast clicks. Other than that they make cute beepy sounds (especially when they're hungry) and a sort of babbling, too. So cute. <3

* suddenly remembers you're an Aussie *
Of course you don't have the Pica family then! Better still, not even Corvids :p
You have their badass Mafiosi reflections, the ones that you don't want to meet in their breeding time haha :p
But since they're not Corvids (and so not really magpies) they probably sound extremely different. I guess you have an actual song bird, not a song bird playing a broken record. :p
