Confrontation (Poecile carolinensis, Haemorhous mexicanus)

House Finch was trying to poke its head in the nest box containing Chickadees and the parent was not letting it happen. The next day the parent sent the fledglings out so I guess it was trying to get them out on their own to grow up quicker :)

beautiful action here Helwa g/f, it seems that because they are living in the same garden they became curious about each others and what is going on i there nests, sometimes sparrows and silverbills do that is weaver nests, and the father becomes mad :ROFLMAO: well to be honest, male weavers are always mad.
