Golden-crowned Sparrows and Robin

Golden-crowned sparrows come to my backyard in the spring and the fall.  This fall, 3-4 of them are hanging around here before going to the coast to spend the winter.  The other day I noticed a big fight between two males.

  Watch out for the airborne attacker!!

(The one in the back is female.)

Karate Kick!!!

Back off for good!!

At another corner of the backyard, a robin is busy pulling out this LONG worm. 
P-P-Pulling with his all might. 

It was taking longer than usual....

At last,  the worm is out.  Robin swallowed it up in a wink. 

It was a delicious lunch.
