July 3, 2002 -- Horizon coming in to attack Ottawa Citizen photographer Chris Mikula as he occupied their nest to distract the adults during the period that the chicks were being banded inside.  Most of Horizon's attacks were strictly for intimidation, but she did make contact once, ripping a hole in the sleeve of Chris' shirt.  In the background of this photo are the two towers of Constitution Square, just south of this year's nest.
