After my last post about male Willet begging a female I have some people calling him a sissy. Well, it seems like many males can loose their heads in some situations but here you will see two Willets fighting like true warriors, mud warriors. Fight lasted about five minutes and neither one decided to submit. During some moments fight was fierce, mud flying around (but no blood) and no merci; attempts to drown opponent in mud did not succeed but make them look muddy. Some martial art tricks - grabbing opponent by neck and holding high in the air were superior but not fatal. I guess they both got enough, became tired and gave up on each other. No victor in this fight. Well, all the things done to impress females. http://www.pbase.com/mbb/image/149636962 http://www.pbase.com/mbb/image/149636973 http://www.pbase.com/mbb/image/149636972 http://www.pbase.com/mbb/image/149636968 And more: http://www.pbase.com/mbb/willet__fight__040513 (I have to stop somewhere - took too many photos) Mark B Bartosik Houston, Texas http://www.pbase.com/mbb/from_the_field Edit your Freelists account settings for TEXBIRDS at //www.freelists.org/list/texbirds Reposting of traffic from TEXBIRDS is prohibited without seeking permission from the List Owner
