There I was minding my own business up a ladder, luckily only at the top of a bungalow.....it was just getting dark and suddenly a bird flew in my face and started flapping about! It scarred the life out of me so much that I jumped straight off the ladder and ran away!

Thank god it was only a bungalow.
 
If it was spring I'd say it was nesting but probably just mad with bird flu!
 
Still got to be ten foot up though, lucky escape.
 
what you going to do when a squirrel goes for you when your 3 stories up?
 
crikey! god help you if you see a spidey lol

should have ripped of its head
 
Did you come back and finish the job or just keep running.

Are you running now.....like forest gump

You should have caught it. A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush apparently.
