Hola list, I have a stupid question for the ornithologists. Does it happen, that birds are throwing with stones? At least once per year I get an email from people, who swear to have heard a stone hitting the roof and rolling down, recently again and the stone even should have had a red mark, where it hit the tile. The stones are quite small, often round or egg-shaped. I remembered an article years ago, reporting that a group of magpies caused troubles in the Netherlands, frequently damaging parking cars in dropping stones. Can this story be true and if so, what are the reasons for such a behaviour?
