Sex, fighting and just chillin’

And that is all in our garden. The other day there was an amazing flight between two male brown-headed cowbirds. They were rolling and tumbling across the garden basically trying to kill each other. Here are a couple of pics of the fight in action.

It was vicious. When hubby went out to break them up they flew off but you could still hear them flighting in the trees – no idea how it all ended up.

As I mentioned in a previous post the flickers are blatantly having sex in our garden- they have no shame. Also the grosbeaks are back and here is the male in the garden this morning.

On the chillin’ side of things – yes you guessed it – the squirrels. These snaps were taken whilst the cowbirds were fighting just a couple of feet away. Obviously he takes bird fights in his stride!
