Swooping Torresian crows are a common problem in Australia, particularly during nesting season. These birds can be aggressive and territorial, and their attacks can cause serious injuries. There are a number of things you can do to defend yourself against swooping crows, including:
- Be aware of your surroundings and look out for crows that are acting aggressively.
- If you see a crow that is swooping, try to avoid making eye contact and move away slowly.
- If a crow does swoop at you, try to protect your head and face with your arms or a hat.
- You can also try to scare the crow away by making loud noises or waving your arms.
It is important to remember that Torresian crows are protected by law, so it is illegal to harm them. If you are having problems with swooping crows, you should contact your local council for advice.
