We recently included a short booklist in the September issue of Wingspan, Birds Australia's full-colour, quarterly membership magazine. As part of this promotion we are offering a free copy of Magpie alert: learning to live with a wild neighbour by Darryl Jones with every order from this insert. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the Australian magpie and has been very well received by customers, as can be seen from the following email received from Helen. For more information on Magpie Alert click here. To view the insert included in the September issue of Wingspan click here.
