Magpies are notorious thieves

A magpie flying along with a mobile phone it had stolen accidentally dropped it in front of two police officers in Germany. Police said the mobile phone didn't work and that the bird must have owned it for some time because it was soaked through and covered in ice. The animal appeared unwilling to accept that it had lost its loot and even as the officers were writing down the lost item, the bird was desperately looking for it on top of and next to parked cars.
