Mini 3 Magpie swooping drone

I took off to get some video of the sunrise from my backyard, shortly afterwards this magpie began circling my Mini 3 Pro so I landed. Tried again a short time later and it came back so I gave up, better to be safe than sorry IMO.

who knew a magpie could look so regal? hate those birds.
 
The other ones which will do that are purple martins. Brave little suckers. About all you can do is ascend - remembering that they will be there when you descend too.

That's the best depiction of a Magpie that I think I've ever seen. In the late 50's I was hunting them as a child to get the egg or head bounty reward. As I recall the head was 25 cents and the eggs were going for 50 cents.
