- They will make a loud repeated alarm call – if they don’t sound happy, it means they’re not
- Some birds may dive bomb you as an obvious sign that they feel threatened by your presence
- They may fake an injury in the hope you will follow them away from the nest
What should you do?
- Keep dogs and birds apart and never allow your dog to chase the birds – keep it on a lead if you have to
- Take a wide route around birds that appear distressed. Move away quickly and quietly – even if that means you are going back the way you have come
