Comment
The terror! Only Australians know the sheer terror of walking anywhere, at that specific time of year, facing attack from all directions by an angry, nesting magpie!
Does it help if you stick googly eyes on your hat? What about if you put wire ties in your bike helmet to scare them off? Does any of it really work? Either way, heaven help you if you’re a Postie, delivering letters on your bike!
As the season turns, there’s nothing more Australian than the sheer fear of magpies and that... makes it an Aussie Icon.
