Magpies can be seen as both helpful and harmful, depending on the context. On one hand, they are beneficial for the ecosystem as they help control insect populations and scavenge for food, contributing to nutrient cycling. On the other hand, they can be aggressive, particularly during nesting season, and are known to raid the nests of other birds. Ultimately, their impact varies by region and situation.
