Azure-winged Magpie

 A bird in the family of crows is the azure-winged magpie (Cyanopica cyanus). It is 31-35 cm long and similar to the Eurasian magpie (Pica pica) in overall appearance, but with proportionately smaller legs and bill, it is slimmer. He belongs to the Cyanopica genus.

The top of the head is shiny black and the throat is white. With the wings and the feathers of the long (16-20 cm) tail and azure blue, the underparts and back are light grey-fawn in color. It inhabits diverse types of coniferous (mainly pine) and broadleaf woodland, including eastern parks and gardens.

It occurs in most of China, Korea , Japan, and north into Mongolia and southern Siberia, over a large area of eastern Asia. A distinct population was traditionally known to be conspecific in the southwestern and central parts of the Iberian Peninsula, in Spain and Portugal, but recent genetic research has shown that they are distinct at the species level.
