Every feather has been detailed, even the moment his/her tail hit overhead !
I can only assume that the image is the result of dust on feathers being dislodged on impact and trapped in a fine, damp layer on the glass.
Pic taken at Pt. Vincent just after dark when the downlight inside were turned on the glass to try & highlight the image.
(Really wish I'd had a proper camera for this shot.....I'll never have the opportunity to capture an image like this again....)
That is ‘impressive’… pun intended.
But seriously, wow!! You can even see the detail on the outline of beak and eye! Unintentional Maggie art.
Early photography was done on glass plates. The Maggies are just catching on.

Thats not a Magpie! It's a Piping Shrike.
