Don't Piss Off the Birds

The Brazilian quero-quero birds are very protective of their eggs, and will attack anyone or thing that threatens them. So, much like cow-tipping in the US, pissing off the quero-queros is a redneck countryside pastime in Brazil. Behold, Eli's cousin nearly getting bitten in the face, and Eli's brother nearly losing an eye. UPDATE: Some people are having trouble viewing the videos, so click here to view them.

First: congratulations for your birthday!
And about the quero-queros, which, by Wikipedia, seem to be called southern lapwing, are very common in football fields... Recently, there was a comic episode about a referee who was attacked for picking the little bird because by their parents(?).
