This time of year they are protecting their mate and young ones. A few years ago, I got "too close" (I was riding next to the curb) and one whacked me in the back side. It left a huge welt!!

My rack broke away from the front dropouts this morning and dragged behind me. I was smoking down a hill and it scared the pee out of me (kind of nice on a chilly morning -- kidding, just kidding). The rack is 11 years old. Time to invest in another $15 rack!
