🎉 FUN FACT FRIDAY! 🎉 🐦 Did you know that magpies can recognise individual human faces? Australian magpies are incredibly intelligent birds and can remember people they’ve encountered before. They may even respond differently to people depending on whether they remember them as friendly or not! 😮 So next time a magpie gives you a good long look… it might actually be remembering you! 👀🐦 💬 What’s the cleverest thing you’ve ever seen a bird do? Happy Friday from everyone at Mareeba Community Centre! 💙💚 #FunFactFriday #DidYouKnow #AustralianWildlife #MareebaCommunityCentre #FridayFun
