I suppose I can safely say that the Brown-throated Sunbirds are territorial, perhaps of their nest or food source. On the few occasions that I came across them in confrontation, and it has always been males, these birds would flap and posture but never got close up or physically touched.
And the same happened with these two although this time, there was no physical display but merely sharp cries which drew my attention, and then silent confrontation. Then it's game over when one suddenly took off.
And the other flying down to see it off feeling victorious!
