Black-billed Magpie

Even though I've seen a lot of magpies this summer I haven't managed to get a shot until now.  I never seem to have the camera ready when they're around.  
We had a Blipmeet at our campsite today!  Mary (MaryElizaR) and her husband, Jerry stopped by and had lunch with us on their way to Rocky Mountain National Park.  We had a great visit.  Blip is such a wonderful community!  In the extra I am on the left, then Ed, Jerry and Mary and their dog, Gypsy.  I wish Piper had made it into the picture!   

Thanks to everyone who commented and left stars on yesterday's blip.  I really appreciate all of them!
