    Default Robins Fighting

    I saw these three robins in a tree and thought that is odd they are very territorial. A pair is one thing ..............Then suddenly I was witnessing a ding dong. Wow what a fight here are some of the shots the first is the three and the female is on the left watching the second photo is an enlargement of the first to show you a close up as are the rest . You only need to see the female once as she just sat there and watched through out.
    The 4th photo.If looks could kill, the the 5th "and don't come back" 6th and 7th he sees the loser off.

    Thanks Rolf
    Oh. What a shame for you not having a camera.
    I have never seen this before. Thrushes I have seen ansd a couple of blackbirds but not Robins in mid air and it went on for 42 shots . I was totally amazed.
