What should you say when you see a lone magpie? How close do two magpies have to be for sorrow to turn to joy? And what do dead nuns have to do with it all? All these questions – and more – are answered by celebrated folklorist corvidologists Professor Margaret Pye and Doctor James Crowe in this edited transcript of a live debate at Dullards College, Cambridge, in August 2025. Every copy comes with a FREE Lucky Feather™, endorsed by Professor Pye*. *Please see the accompanying disclaimer from lawyers representing Doctor Crowe.
