Chocolate-vented Tyrant attacking a Tawny-bellied Dotterel atop the Strobbel Plateau, as the dotterel appeared to be defensive (perhaps protecting a nest or young?), despite 40 mph winds [photos from vehicle]
Observation details
DR writes: "This tyrant and a Tawny-bellied Dotterel engaged in a dramatic encounter in which the tyrant was attacking the dotterel, while (perhaps) the dotterel was protecting a nest or fledgling by 'broken-wing' behavior (?); see series of photos."
