Miami meteorologist Chelsea Ambriz received an unexpected guest star during last Sunday morning’s forecast.
Ambriz had just gotten a toss from the anchor as she gave viewers a live look at Hollywood Beach. She began talking about the seaweed when a pigeon flew into the live beach camera.
“I wasn’t expecting the bird to come, and from my vantage point, I thought it was going to land on my head,” Ambriz said “My natural reaction was to duck,” she said. “Then, in a nanosecond, you start thinking ‘you’re on TV, you’re at work, keep going, keep going.'”
She said she’s “shocked” by how much attention the video has gotten on social media. As of this writing, her Tweet has over 112,000 views.
“I’ve gotten a lot of people that are kind of chuckling along with me,” she said. “I definitely did not think it was going to explode like it has. The retweets and the interactions on Twitter have been fun to see, but yeah, it was just a blooper.”
