It squatted belligerently, peering up at me with miniature magpie fury. George.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen Frieda Hughes moved to the depths of the Welsh countryside, she was expecting to take on a few projects: planting a garden, painting and writing her poetry column for the Times. But instead, she found herself rescuing a baby magpie, the sole survivor of a nest destroyed in a storm - and embarking on an obsession that would change the course of her life.
