I hate that other bird


See while walking down Shannon Road this morning, a pair of juncos (only one is visible here): one on each side of this car; each of them angrily attacking a wing mirror.  Not just once, or twice, but compulsively.  I know this is territorial; it's springtime; their hormones are telling them to drive off what they perceive to be another bird on their patch.  But one still worries that they're going to hurt ... so we shooed them off (they probably found another car on which to practice this fierce combat training).
