The bird is brave for defending her home. but if he didnt move it probably would've broken it's neck or something like that, and the photographer might have got a broken bone somewhere or if the beak hit head on maybe even a puncture wound.
i would get a big rock and hold it up right when its going over my head that would teach the burd a leson. and for all you peta pricks i dont want to hear it!!!!
Its very rare a bird will fly into a human victim.If you stand your ground they will always pull up at the last minute.Injuries occur when trying to duck or run away.Most contact comes from ground attacks eg,swans,geese etc.Most humans react to attack by ducking or running.The skua attack other birds in flight causing them to disgorge there food then the skua steels it in mid air.Mostly a bluff manouvre.They do however prey on penguin chicks and will attack adults.
Try providing a water source or some nest material. They may attract birds than normally don't visit feeders. Hole-nesting birds often use cavities as overnight shelters, too. A roosting box can help them out.

Good on the bird! This is exactly how NOT to photograph wildlife. If this guy was a pro wildlifephotographer then he should have known better. Disturbing wildlife is the greatest sin you can commit in wildlife photography. This fool should be ashamed!!
he is a pro photographer for national geographic so i think he knows what he is doing. if you are a wildlifephotographer i think its hard not to get in encounters like this.

A robin did this to my mom when she went into my grandma's back yard. There was a nest above the doorway, so it freaked out.
Birds can be pretty nasty.
