If You Believe Birds Can’t Be Mean, These 21 Photos Will Change Your Mind

These images capture everything from petty destruction to full-on feathered intimidation, and the captions make it even better. If you have ever thought of birds as sweet little sky creatures, this collection might make you think twice the next time one stares you down. They are here to win.

Perhaps you consider bald eagles to be noble, majestic masters of the skies. Well, we will have to disappoint you.
Other birds of prey would most likely agree with us. Bald eagles are such opportunists that they would rather steal prey from other birds or carrion from a vulture than go hunting themselves.
That reputation is not exactly helping their case.

Canada geese and swans are definitely among the meanest birds around. Canadian geese are notorious for their aggressive behavior and regularly attack humans.
Although this can be attributed to the fact that people often invade their space, swans are the same way: despite their grace and beauty, they will defend their young at any cost if someone comes close to them.
So next time you see birds, be careful not to annoy them. They've put up with us for too long, and now it's payback time.
Nature has a sense of humor, and birds are clearly in on the joke.
