When I went for a run yesterday on the Highline Canal from the Orchard parking lot, running north, I also saw a fairly large flock of Magpies mostly in a dead tree around milepost 5. Likely the same flock I assume.

Hello Fellow Birders,
While sitting on our east-facing porch this afternoon my wife and I observed a flyby of at least 100 magpies. They were flying west in squadrons of 2 to 8 birds, 10 - 20 seconds apart. All on the same 'path' through the trees. Mostly quiet, just a few calls from time to time.
When we came into the house an hour later there about 10 magpies at the feeders and on the ground in our little townhouse yard. Annihilated the suet cake!
Keep Smilin',
