Thanks @ileigh! But... but that blue belly? I'm starting to wonder if it's not my picture that went with weird colours :)

I can't know for sure 2 reasons why it's possible wiki description: The magpie-lark was originally described by the English ornithologist John Latham in the genus Corvus in 1801 (as Corvus cyanoleucus). Its species name is derived from the Ancient Greek words cyanos "dark blue" and leukos "white" despite the black and white plumage. However, there can be a bluish sheen to the black back. 2 photos give bluish tint one is from rewild perth the other is stock photo
