this is bizzare indeed. my guess is that a bird would not attack you but rather something you were wearing triggered the beligerant attitude. you mentioned it attacked your face so it may be that you mask by sunlight reflection looked like a silvery juicy fish, hence the bump. It does not explain the vicious attacks at the surfice though unless the bird attacked its own reflection in your mask glass. freaky story nonetheless!

That was one of my ideas when the bird attacked, is that there was a reflection on my mask. I had a friend who used to freedive to get fishing lures and one time a fish came a took one out of his hand. Why it attacked me at the surface I do not know ?
