Teenager

Baldie is growing towards adulthood, where she will not have a problem with baldness because her feathers are growing back!


See how big she has grown compared to Mr Magpie! When she reaches the stage to care for herself, she may or may not fly the coup. Like all teenagers, she sometimes disappears. Anon will keep Baldie’s progress posted.

No RIP

Baldie was very demanding and reminded Anon many times a day it was time for another snack. She sometimes helped herself into the kitchen when Anon didn’t immediately run to her aide!


She used to be afraid of all other living creatures. Now, she liked to share with Mr and Mrs Lori. We did NOT encourage her association with Common Pigeons!


Baldie even had a swimming pool and enjoyed a morning dip.


Her favourite hobbies were playing Marco Polo in the pool with friends and singing. Not at the same time.

Baldie

BaldieThe zoo vet, wildlife park employees, and other bird experts agreed Baldie's treatment was unusual behaviour for Australian Magpies. Separating the bird from the parents would create more problems and she would ultimately die.

So we adopted Baldie into care within the confines of our backyard so her head wouldn't ultimately fall off! The actual parents were still around, but Baldie thought of Anon as her new Mummy.

Poor Baby

Mr Magpie kept grabbing the poor girl around the neck and telling her off!


Mrs Magpie would peck, peck, peck on the top of Maggie's head!


Until one day we renamed Maggie as 'Baldie'!
