Each to their own , but I'd not encourage magpies unless you want to have no small birds nesting, or certainly successfully rearing their babies.
They're intelligent, yes, undoubtedly , but they're also bullies, very territorial and will happily kill nestlings.

and the cries of other birds watching their babies being stolen and eaten alive.
Just woken up. Minus 6c outside and heavy frost everywhere. Still in bed.
I would stay there a while Pat. I'm going to have an early night
Did anyone see the solar panel chickens in Aldi last weekend? His lordship got me two; if you ignore the fact that two birthdays ago he promised me real hens, aren't they beautiful at night?
Sweet dreams all.
Love them. Better than things on sticks
Wonderful Clari
Really pretty Clari.
Has everyone been watching Chelsea and that amazing programme about growing and selling cut flowers?
I spent most of the day in the veggie garden.
Morning all sun streaming in the kitchen window.
Afternoon Pat.
BL, I've recorded the Dutch flower market for later so that OH got a break from flowers.
Cute chick Clari
Hills or garden Fairy?
