During the most recent Mississippi flood (summer of 2008) I took a walk by in downtown Davenport with my boyfriend and my best friend. I heard this continuous screeching followed by a bird attempting to land on my head. I began taking video of the bird which then attacked me again.

  • @rpmangin Well, their territorial aggression is getting annoying. I can only hope they'll start attacking moving cars soon, and do us all a favour. I mean, I don't hate any birds...but when they start swooping at my head, I get a little bit annoyed!

  • Yes, red wing blackbirds will attack anything that gets near its nest. Size doesn't matter.

  • If it's like the now-famous Front Street blackbird in San Francisco, then it was probably defending its nearby nest. Just another protective parent. Thanks for the video.
