Title: Terrorist strikes Canadian capitol... again. Post by: (oYo) on June 12, 2015, 07:58:28 PM http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/angry-red-winged-blackbird-attacks-passersby-on-parliament-hill-1.3109896 Quote For yet another spring, a red-winged blackbird has been divebombing people as they walk by its nest on Parliament Hill. The fun speculations abound. Maybe it's mad it wasn't chosen as the unofficial bird of Ottawa, or perhaps this is the bird's way of pushing for Senate reform? Maybe the Parliament Hill bird is hoping for this kind of CBC TV coverage. More likely, it's simply protecting its family. But it didn't take long for a Twitter account to materialize, of course. I just love this comment someone made. Quote "It's on Parliament Hill and it's attacking Canadians? I say we name it Harper." - (Commenter) Rob Morley http://s3.amazonaws.com/viafoura/user_pictures/9000000790740_333_60x60.jpg Title: Re: Terrorist strikes Canadian capitol... again. Post by: Chef Ramsay on June 13, 2015, 02:20:22 AM This kind of thing used to happen to me as I used to mow the grass behind my grandparents' apartment building which is on the lake. There was a nearby tree where they had their nest set up and they would circle around me constantly til I made it around to the front of the property.

We used to have a red winged blackbird that would chase away hawks during nesting season...they would get super aggressive |
