The Woodpigeons in my garden have been having a tiff for a few days now.
They make plenty of noise with all the wing slapping...
...and the posturing between scraps reminded me old Bruce Lee movies.
I managed a short video clip... please turn up the volume to appreciate the racket they make.
I have added a bit of slow motion... for effect?

I was going to have Carl Douglas singing "Kung Fu Fighting" over the clip but decided the birds own flapping and slapping made for a better soundtrack.
As it's the 1st anniversary of Wild Bird Wednesday I would like to thank Stewart for taking up the baton from Springman when his World Bird Wednesday came to an end.
I have friendships all over the planet thanks to us all sharing our feathered friends every week.
So I will raise a glass to Stewart and... Happy Birthday Wild Bird Wednesday

The slow motion bit is so cool. From Findlay
Ha! Kung Fu indeed!
Great video work Andrew, love the slo-mo sequence...[;o)
Wow they are great fighters-at least black belts. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Always sqwabbling. Though, they are beautiful.
i like that 2nd shot. :)
36 seconds of awesome... and i agree, the flapping was impressive.. i love the color of their heads and when in air they look transparent
Nice bit of video Andrew ... reminded me of some recent action around here!
A great series of photo and video showing all that birdy action!
It does look like they're Kung Fu fighting! Cool video!
Cool photos, I like the slapping noises! Great video!
The second shot had me laughing! Great video Andrew!
Gee, they sure had a problem with each other over something. A female perhaps?
Great series.
Great shots and the video was fun.
Video is great Andrew.
Great stills and video showing the fierce action!
I'm impressed that you remembered Carl Douglas!
Dear, oh dear, the feathers were flying . . . who won??
Great little video, especially with the slow motion bit.
Nature is always better than man-made, Andrew!...:)JP
What a posturing performance! Clearly there is a social hierarchy in the feathered world! Love the spread wings in the first photo!
