    Fiesty little things aren't they? Our sparrows will fight like that too.

    My blackbirds fight in the air and in the ground for the food I leave out for them. You'd think they'd learn to get on with each other as there's plenty for all.

    What a bunch of rascals!

    They are nice to see even if they are misbehaving.
