Funfact: It's actually a Western Capercaillie and they're quite well known in Scandinavian countries. The reporter is Swedish.
I like how it also tries to intimidate the truck
That looks like a wild cock to me

I have a general rule that dictates that if a bird is bigger than my forearm then it's probably going to want to kick my ass, and is also very likely to succeed.

Or kick it....
Where I used to live there were geese all over the walkway that would hiss and charge any passerbyer, according to my good buddy, one started pecking at his leg to he kicked it so hard it flew into the nearby pond and some old lady started yelling at him saying something alone the lines of "I saw what you did!". Needless to say the goose didn't bother my friend anymore and it wasn't seriously injured according to him.
I say of a bird steps up and tries to act like a man, then you treat it like one and give that squawking piece of shit a taste of it's own medicine. They already shit all over the sidewalk, so they deserve it.

I should add; the only situation you should NOT do this is if the goose/other-bird is just guarding it's young. Then just give it space and take a wide angle around it.
Alternatively, kick the young to establish dominance early on.

Yeah if it approaches you charge back and clothesline the bastard.
Then go for the submission.

Grouse are stupid, don't mistake that for being mean.
This one time, I was hunting with my dad and we drove up to a grouse in the middle of the road pecking at poop. We got out and it just ignored us entirely and kept pecking at poop. I pointed my shotgun at it, and it didn't flinch. I got closer, it didn't flinch. I blew that fucker away. Good eating, and now he doesn't get to reproduce (more?).
I'm pretty sure a Grouse doesn't know what a shotgun is.

Well it doesn't seem like they know what a predator is either.

you ate a poop bird?
I used to live next to a rather large forest a few years ago. In the evening you could hear these fuckers running around sometimes, screaming like the end of the world was nigh, and you could hear them really loud, even though they were a couple of hundred meters away.

1:15 karate chop feathers:v:
All the good trails where I live follow waterways or take you to saltmarshes and the bay so I frequently had to run into aggressive geese.
Anyone who doesn't believe dinosaurs evolved into birds clearly hasn't had to deal with angry geese. The hiss they make when they pop out of vegetation is exactly like the hiss the raptor in Jurassic Park makes when it eats Muldoon
