Description
Here are two more birds from my Songbird ReMix Magpies set...
The Azure-winged Magpie occurs over a large region of eastern Asia in China, Korea, Japan, and north into Mongolia and southern Siberia. It is widespread and locally common. Its diet consists mainly of acorns (oak seeds) and pine nuts, extensively supplemented by invertebrates and their larvae, soft fruits and berries, and also human-provided scraps in parks and towns. Sexes are alike, although females are larger than males.
The Iberian Magpie occurs in the southwestern and central parts of the Iberian Peninsula, in Spain and Portugal. It can sometimes be spotted also in south-western France and north-western Italy. There are about : 290,000 mature individuals with a decreasing population. The destruction of extensive stands of holm oaks has been blamed for its disappearance over several areas. It was formerly thought to be conspecific with the Azure-winged Magpie, but recent genetic analysis has shown them to be distinct at species level. It differs in having a smaller size, a relatively shorter bill, somewhat brighter blue wings and tail, and the lack of white tips on tail.
