I wanna kill a mockingbird
Thrice daily I get attacked by this bird while walking our dog, Lady. At first when the bird insisted on following us along our walk I thought he/she was being friendly. Maybe he had a crush on Lady or something? After a few days Eric and I realized that they were actually "dive-bombing" us. Well this is just not a friendly reaction at all! My boss was a wonderful resource for us as she is an avid bird watcher. Based on our description she suggested maybe it is a mockingbird that is attacking us. Sure enough after some research we confirmed that yes (!) it is a northern mockingbird and the "dive-bombing" is common during nesting.I'm not sure what these paranoid birds expect us to do! THEY are nesting in OUR pet relief area after all. Eric threw rocks at them this morning to keep them away. You may think this is harsh but one flew directly at my head the other day. I almost got a bird claw in my eye. They either need to learn to share our grassy knoll or move on. Bastard birds!
