Eurasian Magpie – Taxidermy
PU1232
The Eurasian magpie (PICA PICA) is one of the most familiar birds across European landscapes, and even up to China. With its black-and-white plumage, metallic iridescence, long tail and inquisitive eye, it rarely goes unnoticed.
Its name speaks volumes: magpies are known for their frequent and varied vocalisations—sometimes charming, often insistent. The saying “as chatty as a magpie” may not be flattering, but it’s certainly well earned.
