24. What’s a strange occurrence you’ve experienced but have never (or rarely) shared with anyone?

That although I am not scared of birds, I have my fair share of bird problems.  I was concussed by a seagull once - it had a pasty over it's face at the time and couldn't see where it was going.  I liken it to being hit by a roast chicken (or what I would imagine it would feel like).  Then there was the time I was attacked by some nectar birds in our local bird sanctuary.  They were hungry and I was the first one in the feeding pen, with a measure of nectar.  They all dived at me so fast, I put my hands up to shield myself and the force of the birds hitting my hands, knocked the nectar over my head.  So you can imagine what happened next - my head was stripped of nectar as I was trying to fend them off.  P2 and my mother did what any family member would do and just stood there and laughed at me.

When I was a teenager, my friend Mandy and I were down on the Saltings, where an angry swan chased her up the beach. That was terrifying!
