Ah yes, Magpie swooping scares many people, but some, likemyself have fun getting them to swoop. But that is getting you in trouble, I was often at school butvalso can get you arrested by police if caught tempting the swooping as it stirs the magpies up to attack others too.
Can cause actual bleeding wounds typically behind the ears and on the scalp, as the sharp beak easily causes wounds on repeated hits.
Essy way to avoid hits is to turn looking at th he magpie, though must avoid looking just as thry hit as your eyes are at risk. A common safety tip is to wear a bicycle helmet with a pair of eyes painted on top or some tie (zip) strips with end pocking upwards helps.
In public area like parks, around shopping strips, railway stations, whereever numerous people must go, the public is protected by authorities that just destroy the nests by a shotgun blast when the hazard is too extreme.
