Bird Has No Idea WTF His Friend Is Doing Right Now

Humans aren't the only animals who like to hang out with their friends.

In a video making the rounds on the internet today, two Australian magpies make a jungle gym out of somebody's backyard, and one of the birds decides to go for gold by hanging from a towel, what else?
