They are a real menace, where I used to work some years ago, there was a lovely pond with ducks and some Canada Geese, I well remember one morning arriving to some very upset colleagues who had seen Herons take five out of the ten ducklings that had been hatched. We have spent ages watching them circling around when the Magpies are nesting near us, it's like Jurassic Park, there are quite a few aerial dog fights with the Magpies defending their chicks.
