> Hi, there is a very aggressive magpie around the DH rugby field, Stoddart point and Playcentre. This has been going on for about 2 months, getting worse. The bird in particular swoops at small children and follows us everywhere we go. It’s gotten so bad that we can’t go there anymore as my child is terrified. I’m not sure what can be done but it’s affecting our daily lives quite a bit now.
