> In European culture, the magpie is reputed to collect shiny objects, often in fiction things like wedding rings or other valuable or significant objects (often causing consternation at the disappearance, and false accusation of humans in the plot of the story); the most well-known example probably being Rossini's opera "La Gazza Ladra" (The Thieving Magpie). Recent research [8] has shown that there is little truth in the legend, and that magpies - like many animals - are actually unsettled by shiny, blue, or otherwise unusual objects.
