There’s an idea, I’ve never seen a magpie decoy before. I did notice that a magpie in the trap attracted its brethren to join it, so I’m patient with their removal until the population is peaking. On occasion I’d neutralize the ones the wouldn’t get in the trap, but were hanging out on top of it. A trap full of ‘pies entices more to join the party.
I can’t imagine what the racket would have been like with 5 or 6 of those noisy birds caged when the dog was in there!
