Hilarious Video Shows Bird Pestering Elk

A peaceful scene in North Carolina's Great Smoky Mountains was anything but for one particular elk, which did not appreciate the attentions of a pesky bird. The hilarious video was captured by Hillary Norville at the Oconaluftee Visitor Center in Cherokee. "I am always taking pictures and videos of the mountains here, and for this video, I just happened to be at the right place at the right time," Norville told Storyful.
