Eastern Kingbird |
 |
|
The Eastern Kingbird is a small but aggressive little bird. They make their living hunting flies and bugs which they catch in the air. They sometimes also eat fruits such as berries. high-res

The Eastern Kingbird is very aggressive and fearless, when they protect their nest. A good example is our local Osprey nest, and each time an Osprey returns to its nest, passing the Kingbird's nest, the little Kingbird immediately attacks the huge Osprey. high-res
