The Oriental Magpie is a widespread and highly adaptable corvid found across much of East Asia and parts of Southeast Asia. It is easily recognized by its contrasting black and white plumage and long tail, often thriving in urban environments.
Where to spot
Common in a wide variety of habitats across East and Southeast Asia, including urban parks, agricultural fields, open woodlands, and suburban areas.
How to spot
Look for its striking black and white appearance and long, graduated tail. They are often seen foraging on the ground or perching on power lines and rooftops. Listen for their distinctive 'chack-chack-chack' calls.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, year-round. They are particularly conspicuous during breeding season (spring-summer) when nests are being built and young are being raised.
