Magpies are birds known for their shiny, black and white plumage and long tails. They are part of the crow family, but they're not just ordinary black birds, they have a streak of white on their wings that flashes when they fly. Magpies are quite smart and are known to recognize themselves in a mirror, which is very rare among animals.  \nNow, let's talk about the magpie's diet and habitat. Magpies are omnivores, which means they eat both plants and animals-including insects, rodents, seeds, and berries. They can be found all over the world, but they mostly live in places with lots of trees, like forests and woodlands. You might even spot them in your backyard, especially if you live near a park or a green space.  \nMagpies have a unique life cycle and some fascinating behaviors. They pair for life, building large nests in trees where they lay their eggs, and both parents take turns incubating them. Magpies are also known to mourn their dead by gathering around the deceased bird, a behavior not commonly seen in the animal kingdom. When it comes to defending themselves, they are known to dive-bomb intruders who come too close to their nests.  \nLastly, let's explore the magpie's relationship with us humans and other animals. In some cultures, magpies are seen as symbols of good luck, while in others, they're considered pests because they can sometimes steal shiny objects. With other animals, magpies have been observed to form alliances, especially with larger animals like cows or horses to feed on the insects that bother these big buddies. But whether they're stealing our trinkets or helping out on the farm, magpies are indeed interesting birds to learn about.  \nSolve each problem.  \nUse the article to answer the question.  \n1) What color is the streak on the wings of magpies?  \nA.
