It seems Magpie season has started early. John Raju has reported that there is a very aggressive Magpie near South Park Chipping Norton. John was attacked by the bird while riding along the bike path between the river and South Park and then again along Charlton Avenue (where he detoured on the way home to avoid the bird). There was blood and it wasn’t the magpie’s! Be careful out there folks.
The Google Magpie Map is a good resource to revisit at this time of year. If you encounter an aggressive magpie please log it for the sake of other riders.
