Sometimes, we all like to just hang out. Perhaps to gain a different perspective on the world, to gain new footing as it were...
Like crows and other corvids, magpies are intelligent birds – and as we know from mammals, with smarts, comes play. While some have suggested this bird is simply stuck on the towel, and we can only speculate about what it's actually doing (its friend there seems equally puzzled)
Play in birds is actually relatively rare to observe. Of the approximately 10,500 species of birds, just 25 have been seen engaging in true play behaviour. This includes members of the parrot, hornbill, babbler, and, of course, the corvid family as we see here.
