Upset with the other

[CM Prince]

A Black-crested Titmouse and a Painted Bunting upset with each other.

I never shot a picture like this before.



Not the best picture but difference, taken at South Llano River SP, TX.

enjoy

Hi CM- nice to see such a unique combo of species. Inter-species aggression is quite common (I assume this is what is happening here). It is often related to competition for a common resource like food. By chance was there a feeder nearby?

Yes, a feed box was below the branch. I have seen one run the other off, but not fight like this.

Thanks for the reply
