Sorry for taking up space with these birds...the original thread(with three new shots) is several messages down. I just HAD to post these. : ) I got too close to the nest and felt a swish of air above my head..right in my face was this bird. I got divebombed twice! My soft heart jumped in and I backed way off, while this one flew on to the light pole and squawked at me. Then gave me the "eye". Realizing how vunerable animals are to nutzo humans, I was amazed at the tenacious attitude..keeping the babies safe. I will give these birds more room to do their stuff then try to get shots of the chick when they fledge.
