Answer 5

It is breeding season and birds have nests and young around and will protect them if humans get too close.  This is pretty common at this time of year.  Sounds like a Red-winged Blackbird..these are not exotic birds at all...they are native and can be agressive when protecting nests or young.

Answer 6

it must have been a red winged blackbird and you must have disturbed it's nest and he/she was protecting it's babies or it just didn't like you. no hard feelings = D

Answer 7

What exactly were you doing with your hand in the bush?  You probably disrupted its nest..

Anyhow, you are not alone:
