'It’s that time of year again: magpie season. Sam has been attacked by one on the way home and she is not happy. But she’s not the only one with magpie trouble. The postie has refused to deliver the mail until something is done about the swooping magpies on his mail route. Sam vows to come up with a solution to the problem. With the help of her best friend Diana, and new girl Bianca, Sam comes up with some creative ways to stop the pesky birds. But will the solution turn out to be worse than the problem?
