Half hearted swooping and squawking. But did follow me and hover as I was waving my hand above head for protection

Aggressive magpie. Several swoops and hit helmet twice

I was rideing my bike through the park towards the swingset and was continuously swooped. They do not swoop me on the swing only when I'm riding to it. I have been going there every two days for years...

Was walking to the bus stop and saw a number of them. But one of them squaked and flew at me

It tends to swoop just inside the school so watch out. The school car park located next to Outlook

If it ever gets you here, start heading down south towards KFC which is about maybe 500m or so from the McDonald’s

Was swooped by magpie while walking with my daughter . Kept swooping us we had to run across the road to the hbf arena in to the bushland. So it would stop trying to attack us.
Reported by Alexis Hume
No contact, 3 or 4 swoops, lots of squaking.

Hadn't seen this Magpie in weeks, turns out it's still there and still super aggro! I was lulled into a false sense of security ???? Not injured,...

Deadly bugger this one. Surrounded by apartments where you don't think there would be a maggie this one attacked high and low from behind. Sneaky bugger too

After a period of not being swooped here, I was once again swooped while running (two swoops, no contact). For reference, I was wearing a blue singlet today.
