Likely, the raven got a bit too close to the mockingbird&#8217;s nest.<\/p>\n<p>Whenever I come upon these mobbing scenarios, the intruder appears unaffected by the attacks, even as they&#8217;re getting grazed by a beak or claw. That stoicism usually gives way to annoyance, maybe a few snap backs at the mobber. And eventually, in most cases I&#8217;ve seen, the intruder leaves the scene.<\/p>\n<p>The mobbing isn&#8217;t just effective from the standpoint of deterrence and attack. If a predator sidles in quietly, a noisy mobbing will draw attention to the interloper, and undermine a stealth attack. A study in Springer&#8217;s journal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2017\/02\/170222105242.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology<\/em><\/a>\u00a0found that mobbing &#8220;gives male birds the chance to show off their physical qualities in order to impress females,&#8221; and might also teach youngsters how to distinguish between friend and foe.<\/p>\n<p>[\/fusion_text][\/fusion_builder_column][fusion_builder_column type=&#8221;1_6&#8243; align_self=&#8221;auto&#8221;
