Birds tussling outside the winery

I saw some birds of prey locked at the talons outside the winery and had the camera nearby.  It reminds you how O’Vineyards is pretty rural/wild.  Hawks just wander up and use our front deck when they feel like it.

Now there’s a debate going on about whether these birds or fighting or mating.  My money is on fight, but that’s mostly because I don’t want to fathom that I’ve interrupted their cloacal kissing.  If you don’t know what that means, look it up.

Here’s some video. You be the judge!

Has our wine driven these birds to violence or made them lusty?

Oh I was listening to Camille when this all happened so excuse the bizarre but pointed soundtrack.
