One playful magpie was seen running down the street after a tennis ball in Western Australia.
Braden Collins uploaded the video online in November from Bunbury, South of Perth.

Finn Kelly was attacked in Trigg by the bird Clarko Reserve.
Stacey, his mother, said to Today Tonight that her son ran towards me, with his right eye covered, screaming at the ceiling.
The bird was then tempted to bite, and was seen nudging it seconds later.
The tennis ball was gaining momentum and rolling down the street. An eager magpie chased it.
“All I could see was the blood coming out his nose.”
Stacey said she saw a sign warning people about swooping magpies while visiting the park with her kids. However, the severity of the warning was not apparent to her.
“I thought, “Oh okay, kids, put your hats on.” “I didn’t think any more of it,” she replied.
She called her son’s situation ‘the worst possible scenario’ and warned the public about aggressive birds.
