Taken just outside my home office window just now.
I like a 'mischief of magpies' as a common noun as they're into theft more than murder imho.

I can hear shiny tuxedo noises just looking at them.
They were very talkative! (it's hard to hear in the video, and I was afraid that opening my window further would scare them off.
Magpies are very smart and easy to train. They eat peanuts out of my hand now :)
I looked for some nuts and seeds to try, but all I have right now are salted ones (which you aren't supposed to give to them).
For some reason the video isn't loading for me. Tried Voyager, Interstellar, and the catbox link in a browser, no luck.
On Voyager, the video eventually started playing. No progress indication.
Catbox has been down for spurts here and there for the last few days. It's possible they have having issues. Right now, I can see the video in a fresh browser and voyager both.
This image gave me some optical illusion effects at first, I didn’t see the birds I saw pieces of metal I thought were an art piece or something.
