As magpie is called "xi que(喜鹊)" in Chinese, the first character is xi which means happiness, so the magpie is a symbol of happy event. In ancient China, the magpie was regarded as an auspicious bird. People thought they had the precognition ability. A magpie landing on a tree branch is an omen of happy event and good luck, and two magpies would be regarded as a double helping of good luck and double happiness。
The image of the magpie can be combined with various painting objects. While two magpies frolicing among the bamboo,this combination symbolizes a Chinese phrase "Shuang Xi Jie Jie(双喜j节节)", which means life is like bamboo, rising every day, four seasons of spring, and many happy events.
