Superb shot and something I've never seen. Robins are notoriously territorial so that's a great capture !

Thank you for all of your comments.They fought for about 20-30 seconds with the dominant one on top for the duration of the fight, after which they then parted and went in opposite directions with what appeared to be no injuries.
