Thanks Jack, nice to watch a few different species gang-up on all the nest plunderers if they came too close. Damn hard to get a good shot though, many times they are just too far away.
I also saw some Curlews driving off Bussards and Herons, but too far away to be usefull.

Cheers Brian

I like this one! A nicely blurred background.

Brian, you're right. Most little birds are fearless when it comes to protecting their offspring and it's always fun to watch. At Haida Gwaii I watched the ravens seemingly taking delight in harassing the eagles for no apparent reason. Not surprising that the indigenous folk traditional identified with two tribes.
