Bird Attacks Pedestrians in SF...(Video)

This is hilarious. It's a block from my work in the SF FiDi. Here's a CNN clip via YouTube. BTW, Schroeder's serves up some good beers, especially during Oktoberfest.



And apparently someone decided to start a blog about it, http://frontstreetattackbird.blogspot.com/

I live in North Beach and a crow has been doing this (drive bombing) to me and my dog every morning when I take him out. I now bring a tennis racket with me, but I have yet to connect. I hate birds, and I especially hate crows. They should allow urban hunting for these things if you ask me.

I got dive bombed from some birds in Mexico. A very awkward and annoying feeling. I am not a fan of birds, except predatory birds because they are bad ***.

if you pass by the College of Professional Studies building (directly across from the blood bank) on Masonic St in SF, you'll get attacked by those lil black birds. I don't know what they're called, but everybody's seen them. The ones that hang out with pigeons. They stay in those trees on the sidewalk and swoop down chipping at your hair as u walk by.

What an awesome find. There is a bird that does the exact same thing here in South San Francisco. Scared the hell out of me the first time it happened. I just sent it along to my coworkers for a good laugh; thanks for the find!
