Please note that I am an experienced photographer who is respectful of wildlife. I am aware of and vigilant about following the written and unwritten rules of photographing wildlife.
Having said this, I had just finished up photographing these most beautiful terns and skimmers where they nest during the summer and was walking back to my car. I was far from the nesting area in front of me that I was videoing and did NOT notice the tiny roped off nesting area behind me. The shame is on me for this....
As seen in the video, the birds were warning me to stay away. I thought they wanted me further back from the nesting area in front of me so I kept backing up but towards the tiny nest area that I wasn't aware of.
The tern (terns?) who physically attached me was able to stop me before I actually reached the nest. While the experience was traumatic, everyone was safe in the end.
