Cable Ties VS Magpies

Over the weekend there were tons of cyclists out and about. There seemed to be a new fashion trend, cable ties on bike helmets. This made for a strange antennae like look and had me very confused. Matt solved the mystery. The cable ties scare off magpies. There are often reports on the news of Magpies swooping to protect their nest and taking out some poor persons eye or making cuts large enough to need stitches. Who knew Magpies could be shooed away by cable ties? I learn something new everyday!
