eggs - nest practically same
as last but rather
more loose, with an old
lining... 40 ft up.
Magpies were
quite numerous, and
sets were hardly
complete. I took a set
of 7 fresh eggs (one
very large) from a nest
60 ft up in top of live oak
which also held an
eagles nest. Magpie nest round
12 ft. across. Depression
deep and lined with roots.
Another set of 5
(incomplete was taken & broken).
Climbed to eagles nest but
none were in use.
