There was one that must've set up a nest somewhere near my parking spot at my apartment towards the end of summer. Every time I came home, it would be running around looking for things in the flowerbed nearby, and then come over to me and follow my feet/shoes, and then do soft nips. It was interesting though, because it's like it knew not to peck my ankles (that were covered by my socks) as hard as it did my shoes. Playful in a way.
It would stand on my shoe, and I'd lift it up. It'd bite onto the side of my shoe, and I'd play tug of war with it.
At one point I was diagnosing a car battery issue, and when I had the hood popped, it got territorial over my car. I kept trying to lead it away by enticing it with something distracting a little ways away from the car, and then running back to check my battery. But it would return.
A couple times, I pulled out of my spot to head to work in the morning, and it'd ride on top of my car for a few seconds before I started driving too fast.
They're such interesting birds. I kinda miss that one.
