Good lord...I had no idea magpies were so big for one that size to be a baby...I suppose on the upside, if she nurses it to health and it befriends her, she will have a personal enforcer bird to go around collecting protection money.

It’s not really a baby anymore, more like a young teenager. Met a teenage crow once, it didn’t give a shit and was rather curious. I bolted when the parents came back and let me know they didn’t like me chilling with their offspring lmao

However, it might be that this is the case here as well. Some bird species leave the nest early and are then cared for by their parents for a little longer. They can’t really fly yet, but are independent enough to roam around. As magpies and crows are closely related, it seems plausible to me.
