One-time assistant researcher at Academia Sinica's Institute of Zoology Feng Feng-k'uan, who has observed the blue magpie, points out what an aggressive bird it is. Climbing trees to ring young birds in the nest, he would often be attacked by adult birds in waves like dive-bombers and always had to wear a crash helmet.
曾經擔任中研院動物所研究助理、負責觀察藍鵲的馮豐寬表示，藍鵲性情凶悍，他為了辨識每一隻鳥，爬上樹為巢中幼鳥套腳環時，曾遭到成鳥像轟炸機一樣輪流攻擊，必須戴安全帽才有辦法工作。
