Leon....thanks for the response........i tried to find info on these
birds and found nothing to indicate that they attack people. (Am I a
freak to be so freaked out by a 3 oz bird??) Thanks for the
help......I'll keep these posts in mind when I mow that lawn again.

Hi jeremiah,

They are pretty cheeky for their size and it is a bit
unnerving having them swoop by so close. Anytime something
we humans think is unnatural behavior for wildlife most of
us become a bit concerned ;-)

If you are getting too close to their nest for their
comfort, I would just get the needed work done quickly and
move on. Nesting -> fledging -> be gone is normally only a
month or so. One could probably stay just outside the birds
"I feel threatened zone" for that small amount of time too.

Personally I think you will learn to enjoy the cheeky little
buggers with your new perspective that they are most likely
eating things you really dislike.
