Someone find a suitable community icon please. Something that is recognisably Brisbane-y.

Post it here and I'll set it for the community for all to see.

Oh I know what bin chickens are, we have them in Perth. I figured there was some specific reference to them around Brisbane that I was unaware of.

Well, the upvote icon on /r/reddit was a bin chicken :)

Just a lot of them. Not sure how many there are in Perth, last time I was there I was surprised how many magpies there were.

If you go to a tip in Perth, are they covering the waste piles?

Haven't been to a tip in ages. But we regularly get them in our front yard, and see them around the place getting into bins.

The ballet of Ibis as they dive out of the way of the dozers is not something you easily forget.

the horror, the horror...
