Magpies. They are in the greenbelt trees directly behind our fenceline. We have been doing battle for the last few days. They are incessant and they are winning the battle. My super soaker quiets them down for only a few moments. I'm pretty sure they are laughing at me.

I was outside and spotted one that looked like it was sharpening its beak along our eavestrough before it and its cohorts went after some robins.

I really don't know how to describe it. It was like the magpies mounted a counter-attack. It was almost as if they were... organized!

Hang in there buddy. You sounds like you are kicking ass against a lot of odds.
