Observation details
Nesting in a Purple Martin House. One pair of House Sparrows was also living in it. Other HS were nearby. One female Purple Martin would stay in front of the house (always a female) and try to scare the House Sparrow away. The HS would freeze and stay put until the PM turned away. When more HS came close, she would call out and other PM would swoop to the house to get the HS away from it.
