Two for Joy


According to the old counting magpies nursery rhyme it is one for sorrow, two for joy ...

We've just had our first significant snowfall of the year and I caught this pair of magpies perching on the snowladen branches of the nearby trees.

    They don't look to be filled with joy, but who would perched on a branch after a snowfall.
