Two sparrows show their rough and tumble during a scrap.<br />
<br />
A pair of humble house sparrows show their vicious side as they clash in an avian turf war. <br />
<br />
The two male sparrows exchanged blows with their beaks and claws as one pinned the other to the ground in a violent tussle over territory.<br />
<br />
The rarely-seen behaviour was captured on camera by wildlife photographer Tom Hadley who spotted the action unfolding on his garden path in Brockenhurst, Hants.
