Brown Thrasher...

These birds are very aggressive when it comes to protecting their nests. They usually nest in dense bushes. A couple of years ago I watched as one attacked a Siberian Husky because the dog got too close to the bush that the Thrasher was nesting in. The bird took a dive at the dog several times as it ran to its owner after the bird attacked.
