Fantastic photos! People often call this kind of behavior "mobbing" because it's usually done by a mob of little birds harassing a big threat. But, as this Kingbird shows, even one Little Guy can (in the right circumstances) prevail over a Big Mean Bully. Agility and determination are not to be ignored!

These are great photos of this behavior.
