| I had one of those dive bombing me Saturday. I must have been too close to the nest. I never saw the nest, so that is just a guess. Everytime I turned my back on the black bird it would fly right by my ear. The funny part is, I've been trying to get a picture for months but they were always too far away, or moved to soon. I did end up with a couple good shots finally, but not with the DOF that you achieved. Nice shot. |

Here is a picture of my buddy.
I don't think he was trying to land on my shoulder, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and take some goodies next time. He is hanging out at the Ranger station in the park, so he might be use to handouts and flying close to people. |
