Mimicking was good enough to trick my dog who ran to the front door as soon as it started playing.

If you’re nice to them they are nice back to you. I feed a few Magpies around my area and have never had a problem being swooped. They have long memories.

From ChatGPT..
Magpies can recognise individual humans
Australian magpies have excellent memories and can learn to recognise particular people. They can remember humans who have previously threatened them or their nest, and can behave differently toward those people.
Even more interestingly, research on Australian magpies has shown that information about threats can spread through their social group.
So if one magpie learns that a particular person is dangerous, other magpies may subsequently become more wary of that person.
