The nest must be near. Instead of torturing the birds every single day because you want your coffee(or you just enjoy torturing birds) you can change your reception point 20 meters or so and probably the attacks will stop.

I have done speleology on things like old mines and had attacks from small birds to big ones like vultures and eagles that make their nest on the mine. I have marks on my helmet from that.

It is very interesting how small birds will pretend to have a broken leg or wing just to divert your attention from the nest.

I also have seen eagles attack friends' macaws in the open space or a group of magpies attacking an enormous eagle.

The animal world is not as peaceful as some people believe.

You can’t actually choose your landing zone - it’s assigned by Wing. And I have spoken to them and they are pausing operation for a few days while their bird expert gives them advice, they told me.
