Brave Mother Bird Protects Eggs From Tractor

This is the moment a brave mother bird stared death in the face – bravely protecting her eggs against a tractor that was about to crush her. Footage shows the aggressive red-wattled lapwing mother fiercely screeching at the man and his machine to keep them away from her offspring in Kamphaeng Phet province, Thailand, on May 11. Rice farmer Boonloei Sangkhong, 46, said he was ploughing his field for the planting season when he heard a strange noise nearby. He opened his camera and drove to the source of the noise before encountering the aggressive female bird. She was staring death in the face and standing up to the tractor by expanding her wings to shield a small egg under her body. Boonloei said the fowl was aggressive as if she wanted to fight the tractor but he later noticed that it was only trying to defend her egg. #bird #thailand Thanks for watching!
