This little guy was being very agressive. It was so funny, because he kept running up to me and making whirring noises. Perhaps he was trying to keep me away from a nest?

I like this Brooke. And your assumption is correct. These guys are almost comical in their behavior around the nest. Often they pretend they have a wing injury to lure you away from the nest... Nice capture of this unique posture. #442075
