Magpies attack cyclists in Brisbane. There are loads of cyclists there (well not at the moment obviously, they';re probably kayaking at the moment), and you see lots of them with sort of spikes coming out of the helmets - sort of as if they're wearing brightly covered porcupines on their heads. I asked why this was and was told it was to protect them from magpies. Then, as if specifically to puncture my scepticism, the next time I went out on a bike I got dive bombed by one. It was quite an upsetting experience - sort of like being attacked by a dog only much more 3D
