Action at the 19th

I have never seen this before. The Bearded Dragon and the magpie were competing for the corn chips and a second after I took this shot, the dragon leapt at the magpie who initially recoiled before he lunged at the dragon who of course took off. And I missed the split second opportunity for a great shot :-(
In the next pic I took, all you can see is the dragons back half disappearing out of the bottom of the pic and the magpies feet at the top

I wouldn't risk have that magpie beak spear me either, Mr. B. Dragon. Wise idea to just depart. Glad you take your camera with you to the course, Terry.

Those magpies can be real bullies. Great capture.

[Rick Schies]

I was going to say, I believe the dragon would be the victor

[Graham Thresher]

Super capture. Fav

Okay, I give up! You have dueling critters on your transit routes, beautiful backyard birds, and who knows what you'll bump into next.... I am officially jealous (again). I have to hunt high and low for suitable subjects and sometimes (a couple of days ago), tree bark is the best I can come up with. Great shot....I'd like you to step up to video so that the rest of us can enjoy your life vicariously!

[Lisa Poland]

Fabulous! Although I think that lizard would freak me out! LOL!

[Anne Pancella]

Very nice shot.

[Rosie Kind]

Mr Magpie would be a force not to deal with, interesting little duel :)

[Peter]

Well spotted Terry lovely capture, I would not like to pick a winner in this conflict;)

[Denise Wood]

Why did I know this would be your photo before I saw your name?? You have amazing wildlife around you - I'm like Martin, very jealous! So pleased that you have your camera on hand :) Fav

[Debbie]

Interesting! Sounds like it was a fun little dual. Lovely shot

[Peter Grave]

Nice capture Terry.As i have just learnt, leave your camera in sports mode until otherwise required.You are then able to capture the unexpected !!

[Susan C Clow]

Wow who would think the bird would win but win he did. Now he can eat the corn chips in peace.

[Rachel]

Wow, hungry little critters! Fighting over corn chips.

[Sam]

Fight, fight, fight!

[James_Nicholas]
