I haven't seen much of him, but his younger sibling has been about. I was sat not too far from the bird bath and the baby one hopped a bit on the wall, then went for a drink. He'd be eyeballing me, so I didn't make too much movement, but he was happy enough with me there. IT's lovely when they do that.

Somewhere recently Jacksparrow offered the question as to whether The Moult may already have begun. I reckon it has: haven't seen an adult robin for a week now and I reported a few weeks ago that Rexie was very scruffy.
Is it me or is it early this year ??

I hadn't seen an adult until today and I'm not sure if it was the teenager with a lot more red.
Baby robin likes to come and visit in the afternoon. There was no water in the bird bath and he jumped up and down from it about 5 times whilst looking at us. Think he was telling us something :D

Saw a baby robin behind the fir tree as I was bent down * sweeping the ground table slab under the hanging sunflower heart feeder.

I noticed some movement to my left - I didn't look at it again after I saw it ....

.... until it hopped closer - about 15" away from me - in front of the tree as I swept the long slab at the edge of the grass - it had two patches of pale red :goodvibes:

:feedbirds: * I have a mini dustpan and brush for sweeping the slabs, another for sweeping inside the two ground feeding bird houses and a third for sweeping inside the large bird feeding house on a post. They are all different designs - selected for the job :rolleyes: :laugh: :blackbird:
