No, a fair question. I've added a YouTube video at the end. Our magpies are not like European magpies. Kind of mean-looking birds but they do have a beautiful song. Being serenaded at close range by a family of these things as I dole out the tucker is glorious!

Is that really you, or an AI generated avatar of you and Ms. Fluffy pants?

The video is AI, but it’s reasonably close in atmosphere. As for me, this image is a bit more credible! https://open.substack.com/pub/britnip/p/mid-life
