Just stopped giggling now, Dewi!

Awesome fight and narration! Really well done on all fronts! X#X X#X X#X

I've also seen this...I don't think they can actually kill each other, but they go crazy! 0-

Which pic for "What is the Aminal Saying?" :-0

Do those Shikra like flying around cliffs? :-?

Thank you all for your comments Pumbaa, Lisbeth, Mel, Richprins, Pooky, Flutterby & Amoli. \O

Pumbaa - Wish I was seeing that view again right now. \O

Lis - I made a mistake, but corrected it and put the pic back - thanks for the heads up. \O Keep tuning in to see what happens next....

Mel - Fighting Starlings are betterer than mating Lions anyday. lol

RP - Shikra might ride a thermal near cliffsides, but so do lots of other raptors. \O You can pick one out for "what is the animal saying" after I've posted them all. lol

Pooky - Agree, the colours are spectacular when the light hits them right. \O

Flutt's - Keep reading to find out what happened next. :-? lol

Amoli - It gets even fiercer in a bit. :shock:

"Ding-ding."

Round three......

So tha battle for Starlingrad continued on in a frenzy of violence.

By now it was becoming obvious that the referee had been nobbled by the local notorious mafia bosses, Lucky Starliano & John Starlinger.

The ref just looked on and did nothing as another bird joined into the fray against the one that was down.

Image

One of the tag-team tried to hide the underhand tactics with it's wing as the downed bird raised it's wing in submission.

Image

The one on the ground seemed to be struggling now.

Image

So in came the rest of the mob to finish him off.

Image

One managed a stranglehold.

Image

It did not look good at this point.

Image

With the attackers pressing home their unfair advantage.

Image

Image

It was now looking desperate for the underdog in this battle.

Image

But somehow our hero rallied and got up to retaliate.

Those sunset shots are stunning and the fight club sequence is amazing (if a little scary)
