In Magpie's Gift, a magpie is searching for nesting material when he finds a piece of blue wool. However, when he returns to retrieve the wool, it has already been claimed by a satin bowerbird.
The Australian magpie is a large butcher bird with a rich and musical song. The male satin bowerbird is known for decorating its bower, a nest of upright sticks, with bright blue objects.
