That's great. Looks like the Kingbird is looking for the next spot to peck.

Great capture. Is this common behavior for these birds?

Yes, absolutely. Kingbirds, both Eastern and Western are very defensive and aggressive protectors of their nests.

Of course. I should have realized the Kingbird was not just hitching a ride.
