Magpies can be destructive towards other birds, but they are fiercely protective of their own. Magpies like to steal shiny objects (shiny, good, pretty things). Metaphorical magpies are baddies, real magpies are just doing what is necessary to survive and are niether good nor evil.

Actually I think the part about them stealing shiny objects is just a myth. Read it on wiki earlier, I think.
