Robin fight

Okay, I debated whether to use this but decided to since I thought it was a cool capture. It happened so fast. Three robins were calmly looking for bugs and juicy worms and all of a sudden one attacked the other one. It happened so fast, I only had a second to click the shutter and it was over. One robin still has food in his mouth.

What a great moment to capture.

[Beth]

What a fantastic capture. I didn't know birds did that. At first I thought I was looking at a cock fight.

[Cally]

Wow that's really cool! Did you know that robins are one of the few animals that will actually intentionally kill each other over territory? One of the others, obviously, being humans!

[Cheryl]

@kimmiesue @rynce @kerristephens @mimigd @vernabeth @cally @laurentye @hillcrest Thank you. I don't know what they were fighting over. I didn't know about robins fighting over territory Cally but I guess that's what it could be. There were also three of them. Maybe two were males and didn't like each other around the female. I'm guess they were fighting over food and territory, though.

Great action shot, I have read somewhere that Robins can be quite vicious.
