For today's alt #BirdOfTheDay theme, #FightingFeathers, bird-on-bird scuffles, here are a pair of mud-wrestling mud hens (Common Gallinules, with a Tri-Colored Heron referee). No one was injured, but they did smack each other in the face with their extra-long toes for a while.

I suggested today's #BirdOfTheDay alt #FightingFeathers to @atlanticbirding.bsky.social (thanks AB) so I could post this series: a great cormorant defends its perch from a blue heron. The cormorant won. The heron withdrew to a lower branch. The cormorant watches him settle below. #birds #wildlife
