Confrontation (Passer domesticus)

Back to last autumn to find this picture. The pose of these two House Sparrow brings to mind the two boxers who will beat the living daylights out of each other tonight!

Needless to say I won't be watching!

Lol D, it looks as if they have something to fight about. Maybe they like the shiny silver lid more than the seed. Terrific!

This is a great shot Delia. It's a very nicely balanced composition, and it's full of life and energy. The bird on the left seems to be saying "I told you before, just GO AWAY!". The other one simply refuses to budge. Excellent work.
