I'm no expert, but this may be more like "pillow talk" than fighting :-)
Either way, superb captures, Lee!

Barry, these are actually battling over space. I do have, soft bird porn shots (if you will). This rookery is close to home and I go over about 2 to 3 times a week. There are way more birds than space and I watch for when they fly in and give each other some heck!

Thanks for nice words everyone!
