  OTTAWA -- In Kanata, Ont., a small walking path is being guarded by a very territorial bird, to the point where it tries to attack any passerby who dares cross its path. And this bird means business. Residents in the area have named the red-winged blackbird "Pete." Sandra McIntosh walks the path daily with her husband who just happens to share the same name as the bird. “You just have to be on your guard every time you take a walk along this path,” says Sandra McIntosh. “Every spring, there's a red-winged blackbird that swoops down at everyone that walks by.”
