Nice action series. Looks like a red-winged blackbird.

In the last picture, it looks like the blackbird landed on the hawk's shoulders

Thanks! I think that's a new hawk to the neighborhood, looks like maybe a Red Tail?

Yes, it kept attacking. Don't mess with Blackbirds!

Nice series! The hawks are stronger, but the blackbirds will gang up on them and wear them down.

Where I live in Toronto the blackbirds swoop and attack your head whenever you walk near their nests....the can be oblivious to the nest but they'll still swoop. They aren't nesting yet though, it was friggen 15 degrees F* today.

Blackbirds are insane. Luckily they're pretty small
