Liset Karmen and Cees Keyer in the Netherlands captured this video of European House Sparrows fighting over perches on a feeder. Even better, they captured it on a high speed camera so we can watch the action in slow motion.

Slow Motion Sparrows Fighting Over Feeder (video)
Posted by Kirk in: Birds
Anyone who's watched a bird feeder long enough will note that birds don't always take their turn at the trough. Birds can agressively defend a perch or drive other birds off. I posted this photo to my twitter stream just the other day of a Red-bellied Woodpecker chasing a Black-capped Chickadee off the feeders at work. The image was captured with our automated feeder camera.
