Being swooped by magpies on a bicycle is a regular occurrence in Spring, but Canberra is the only place I’ve been swooped while riding a motorbike. The sun was behind me so I had a perfect view of our converging shadows on the road in front of me.
Very happy to be wearing a full-face helmet. Canberra’s bird life doesn’t muck around.

Of course Australian magpies aren’t corvids…or even magpies.

That was helpful! I have a hard time telling them apart from sight.
If anyone here is unfamiliar, Bernd Heinrich has a couple great books about ravens, and for those with broader avian interests, “One Wild Bird at a Time,” is a nice read.
