Description
I know it's not possible, but I swear these two came out of the same egg. We call them the twins...they are always together. Spring and Summer they spend their time fighting. The rest of the time they eat together, groom each other and roost together at night. I don't know what will happen if one causes the other serious injury.
I tried to get a shot of them as they go into the air to use their spurs at each other. They decided that if I was going to be there, they would just circle each other and pretend to attack.

They are such pretty birds.....but man o man, can they let out the most blood curdling screams!!!! Our neighbors had them and many a time we thought someone was getting murdered at their place. LOL

Wonder if they fight for who is more colorful?

They fight for territory. They each have a special place the prefer to display their tails. They all want the same spot. LOL These two just fight for the heck of it.

They fight over territory. Each bird has a special place they like to display their tails. They all seem to want the same spot.
