Robins are territorial. They proved that to me this morning, on our lawn. Two of them, two starlings and a woodpecker arrived looking for food and nesting material. They seemed to stay the same distance apart, and whenever they got close, would have a bit of a scrap. In fact, I was quite lucky to get such a good shot of the sight. Their legs are so thin, they look just like twigs; but they seem to do well with them.
