    This is the moment a blackbird which 'only attacks men' clawed a pedestrian's neck as he strolled past a hotel.

    The oblivious man, dressed in blue jeans and a green shirt, was looking at his phone as he strolled down the pavement in Lima, Peru, on February 3.

    He dropped his folder and smartphone on the ground as the bird swooped in and clipped the back of his head with its feet.

    The man was left scratching his head wondering where the bird disappeared to.
