I've been noticing how big and mean they're all starting to look. Must be Spring.
Saw a low swooping one today so they mujst be getting active.
Not sure how to add Magpie attack to map... could you enlighten me please? I was under concerted attack by one magpie on the Eastlink/Dandenong Creek Trail near Greens Road. It went for my ear, several times, and left me bleeding. b
Try this map Belinda. You may already find it has been listed.

Just watched a cyclist collect a beauty of a smack on the back of the head from a magpie that nests in the cypress trees around the Monash uni bus loop.  Tried to add it to a couple of the maps but they all tell me that the swooping season is over...

 

Thanks for that Belinda. I use that path sometimes on the way to work and home. Will go up Hammond to Cheltenham Rd instead.
